1 EWC Strategic Plan

2 Strategic Plan Introduction The Education Workforce Council (EWC) was established by the Education (Wales) Act Under the Act, the General Teaching Council for Wales (GTCW) was reconfigured and renamed to become the Education Workforce Council. The EWC came into being on 1 April The strategic plan has been developed following a comprehensive review of current activities and processes. The review process also involved macro and micro environment scanning to take account of changes in the internal and external environment which will impact upon the organisation and the wider education workforce. The current environment within education is fastpaced and evolving. The plan seeks to reflect the EWC priorities for the coming years, ensuring they are aligned with national policy and that they effectively support practitioners and safeguard learners and the general public. We want to work with all registrants to persuade them of the benefits of professional regulation and registration with the EWC. We will demonstrate to our new registrant groups that we consistently emphasise the diverse composition of the workforce and act as advocates for them, working to attain parity of support and recognition for their contribution to education in Wales. Through the duration of this plan, it is hoped that the remit of the EWC will increase to bring it more in line with counterpart regulatory bodies, moving towards the development of the full suite of regulatory functions, including professional standards for all registrant groups. This will serve to further enhance our offering to registrants, ensuring consistency of approach whilst demonstrating value for money. The extended Register will provide a richer picture of the diverse education workforce, and this valuable data will assist in identifying key trends and informing workforce policy. We will continue to support Welsh Government with workforce planning and development, and will be responsive to assisting with ad hoc project-based work to support policy development. In order to ensure the plan is fit for purpose, we have consulted with our key stakeholders including Council members and staff, teaching unions and the wider community. Our Vision To be a credible, independent regulator and strategic partner of choice in the education sector in Wales.

3 Our Mission We are a national, independent regulator, ensuring professionalism and high standards within the education workforce. We regulate on behalf of the public and support education professionals in a variety of roles from the foundation phase through to further education, support roles and beyond. We are a credible source of data and intelligence on the education workforce in Wales Legislative framework Under the Education (Wales) Act 2014, the principal aims of the council are to: Contribute to improving the standards of teaching and the quality of learning in Wales Maintain and improve standards of professional conduct amongst teachers and others who support teaching and learning in Wales Safeguard the interests of learners, parents and the public, and maintain public trust and confidence in the education workforce Under the Education (Wales) Act, the Council s main functions are to: Establish and maintain a Register of Education Practitioners Maintain a Code of Professional Conduct and Practice for the education workforce Investigate and hear allegations of unacceptable professional conduct, serious professional incompetence or relevant criminal offences that might call into question a registered practitioner s fitness to practise Accredit programmes of initial school teacher education and monitor their compliance with national criteria Provide advice to the Welsh Government and others on matters related to the education workforce and teaching and learning Monitor Induction and hear appeals (where applicable) for teachers Promote careers in the education workforce Undertake specific work in relation to teaching and learning at the request of the Welsh Government The Education Workforce Council is not a Welsh Government sponsored body; it is funded by registration fees, but receives grant funding from the Welsh Government for activities undertaken on its behalf which include: Administering the award of Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) Administering funding, tracking and recording arrangements for Induction, and the Masters in Educational Practice (MEP) Developing and hosting the Professional Learning Passport (PLP)

4 Hearing Induction appeals and issuing Induction certificates Establishing the Initial Teacher Education Accreditation Committee within the EWC and preparing to accredit programmes. Structure The Education Workforce Council has fourteen members. Seven members are directly appointed through the Welsh Government public appointments system and seven members are appointed following nomination from a range of stakeholders. Council members are appointed for a period of four years. The Council sets the strategic direction for the EWC and is responsible for its governance. The EWC currently employs 35 staff. However as the organisational remit grows, it is anticipated that the staffing capacity will increase over the course of this plan. Key Objectives for Objective 1: Maintain the professional standards of registrants and ensure their fitness to practise in the public interest 1.1. Maintain a Register of Education Practitioners that is accurate, accessible and responsive Operate robust, fair and transparent fitness to practise and registration procedures which maintain public confidence in the education workforce and ensure that only those deemed suitable to practise may do so Engage with the workforce and stakeholders to support high standards by promoting a Code of Professional Conduct and Practice and related guidance. Objective 2: Promote professionalism and professional learning within the education workforce 2.1 Develop a robust system for the accreditation of Initial Teacher Education programmes which ensures quality and standardisation of provision. 2.2 Lead and support initiatives to promote effective professional learning within the education workforce. 2.3 Lead and support initiatives to promote research engagement within the education workforce. Objective 3: Work as a strategic partner to help improve education policy and its implementation in Wales 3.1 Provide timely advice, research and consultation responses that are evidence based, informed by the experiences of the education workforce, and that make effective use of the unique data held on the Register of Education Practitioners.

5 3.2 Ensure that our communications present clear and consistent messages about the role of the EWC and that we engage meaningfully with the public, our registrants, and our stakeholders. 3.3 Proactively seek out opportunities for enhanced partnership working with our stakeholders, including our registrants to positively influence policy development and delivery Objective 4: Increase organisational capability and capacity whilst ensuring best value for registrants 4.1 Manage resources effectively through careful financial planning, monitoring and control. 4.2 Continue to improve planning and performance management processes, ensuring they incorporate best practice and comply with statutory standards and legislation. 4.3 Provide a comprehensive and inclusive development programme for employees, Council, and Committee members, that meets the evolving needs of the organisation and promotes equality and wellbeing.
