Teachers have differing levels of expertise and experience of teaching.
Whatever the context or amount of expertise, the training will aim to use and build on teachers' experience. FEFC inspectors identify differentiated planning and learning as an area of weakness in many ESOL programmes inspected 1 . The consultation on the curriculum showed that many practitioners have concerns that their students will take a very long time to reach Entry 1 of the new Standards. The training will try to take into account these issues. They will then plan the training programme to accommodate these numbers and locations.
