Taking Teaching Further & Additional Incentives
If you’re making the move into further education teaching, you may be eligible for the Taking Teaching Further (TTF) programme, a funded route designed to support industry professionals to retrain as FE teachers.
In addition, for roles in high-need subjects or regions, you may also benefit from the government’s Targeted Retention Incentive (formerly the “levelling-up premium”) payments. These payments are worth up to £6,000 for eligible teachers in their first five years who are teaching certain shortage subjects.
Please note that eligibility for both TTF and the Targeted Retention Incentive varies by role, subject area and provider, they do not apply to every vacancy.
