However, it is the responsibility of providers to determine the shape of their training curriculum to suit their local circumstances and the needs of their trainees, such as subject-specific knowledge.</p><p>The response sets out new quality requirements, including a section focused on curriculum, which will become part of the ITT criteria from academic year 2024/25.</p><p>Alongside the response, the government has also published documentation for current providers wishing to apply for reaccreditation and new organisations wishing to become accredited ITT providers from the academic year 2024/25, available here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/initial-teacher-training-itt-market-review/initial-teacher-training-itt-market-review-overview" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/initial-teacher-training-itt-market-review/initial-teacher-training-itt-market-review-overview</a>.

Following assessment, moderation and, where necessary, due diligence checks of all applications submitted in the first round, applicants will be informed in writing of the outcome of their accreditation application. This will include some feedback about the application. If unsuccessful, feedback will outline how the applicant has not met the required standard for accreditation. If an organisation is unsuccessful in the first round, they can reapply in the second, or alternatively decide to join a partnership with a successful provider. We reserve the right to run additional accreditation rounds if this is needed.</p> more like this
