I teach a sixth form only subject. I am currently on maternity leave, returning in September. I got QTS shortly before going on leave so will be an NQT when I return. I had to teach a second, un-related subject at GCSE in order to meet the requirement to teach two different age ranges. The school is an Academy and I've been teaching there for four terms. I am keen to drop the second subject (no objection to teaching other subjects as school needs, just not that one).
Does anyone know i) can I complete my NQT year just teaching sixth form? and ii) is it likely school will allow me to complete NQT on an 80% timetable over a year? this seems to be acceptable according to the new regulations www.education.gov.uk/schools/leadership/deployingstaff/newstaff/b0066959/nqt-induction)
Also, I am assuming it would be a good idea NOT to push for NQT in less than a year as then I will lose the 90% timetable? Or 90% of 80% ifyswim.
Any tips would be great, thank you.
