How can I view important information about the ECT Wellbeing research project?

At the NIoT, we want to better understand the role that mentors can play in supporting the wellbeing of early-career teachers. This year, we are trialling some small adaptations to the ECT programme and want to evaluating their success.

What's involved?

• We'll be asking you to complete three short surveys this academic year, each taking less than 5 minutes.
• These contain quick and simple questions about your wellbeing, and your experiences of being mentored. Your mentor will also be asked to complete similar surveys.
• At three points in the year, we'll also gather some data from your records of your mentoring sessions on Prism, to get some measures of how you're progressing. Rest assured, all your responses and data will be anonymous, kept completely confidential and will not be used for anything other than to assess wellbeing.

Next steps?

• You can complete the surveys in your Prism account. Please note that if you leave the survey part-way through completion, your responses will not be saved.
• If you would like to complete the survey at a later date, please click on 'Postpone' and the survey will re-appear when you next log in.
• If you do not wish to complete the survey, please ignore any future reminder messages.
• Linked here is an information sheet that provides further details on this important evaluation.
• Linked here is our privacy notice, which explains how we use your data at the NIoT.
