Refresh of the 'Criteria for accreditation of initial teacher education in Wales'

We are consulting on the draft Criteria which is intended to ensure both reaccredited and new initial teacher education (ITE) programmes fully:

• reflect the maturing educational reforms, incorporating legislative changes and references to the most up to date guidance on related issues
• reflect the lessons learned from the first ‘round’ of accreditation and accredited provision, to ensure the vision and implementation of ITE programmes is clear for all those involved in delivering and supporting ITE
• raise our ambitions and expectations for ITE programmes and ITE Partnerships to support our ambition for world leading ITE
