With any policy development and reform activity it is right and proper that stakeholder groups are reviewed throughout their lifetime.
We continue to gather expert advice and evidence from stakeholders regarding teacher recruitment and retention such as our recent work on refreshing the Criteria for accreditation of ITE Programmes in Wales, our ongoing research work with DARPL regarding diverse recruitment, our partnership working with stakeholders in the Welsh-medium sector and our regular meetings with Local Authorities.
