"By 2010, the government wants to offer fourteen specialised vocational Diplomas alongside existing A-levels.
This falls far short of the recommendations of former chief schools inspector Sir Mike Tomlinson, who suggested replacing GCSEs and A-levels with a four-part diploma encompassing academic subjects, vocational training and key skills like literacy and numeracy.
So, will vocational courses continue to be regarded as the poor relation to A-levels?
Peter Curran discusses the issue with Ken Spours from the Institute of Education, who was a member of the Tomlinson committee, and Louise Potter, Policy Advisor for the Chambers of Commerce.
We also visit John Moores University in Liverpool, which trains teachers specifically to teach vocational courses.
And, Fiona Flynn from the Times Educational Supplement visits a sixth form college in South London which firmly believes in encouraging its students along a vocational path."

"The introduction of a new pay restructuring scheme, replacing Management Allowances with Teaching and Learning Responsibility (TLR) payments is still sending tremors through the world of education. In the long term will they be a good or a bad thing for teachers?
This week we explore TLRs in detail, bringing you all the facts about the pay scheme which has caused such confusion and dismay in schools.
Joan Olivier, a headteacher in Fulham, was one of the first to fully introduce the new payments. We visit her and her staff and hear about the highs and lows of implementing TLRs.
Peter Curran hosts a discussion with the NUT's Barry Fawcett, one of the most outspoken opponents of the new pay structure, and Bill Simmons, Chief Executive of the National Bursars Association."

"This week Careerwise takes a look the mentoring and coaching of teachers by teachers. Is it a useful initiative or just training on the cheap?
Peter Curran is joined by Barrie Joy, Head of Mentoring-Coaching at the Institute of Education and John Bangs, Head of Continuing Professional Development at the NUT, to discuss its uses and abuses.
Mentoring of Initial Teacher Trainees has become a more crucial job with the advent of the Graduate Teacher Training Programme. We go to Yorkshire to see how schools there have created a support network for mentors, enabling them to share best practice and gain professional recognition for their work.
And, Fiona Flynn visits Sweyne Park School in Essex, which has a thriving culture of co-coaching, to find out how teachers can use this to help them introduce new ideas into their teaching."

"This programme is all about career rejuvenation. Why do so many teachers consider throwing in the towel after four or five years? Peter Curran hosts a discussion with Professor Andy Goodwyn from Reading University, the Teacher Support Network's Patrick Nash and Education Careers Coach Susan Moss about how to avoid burnout and keep your energy and enthusiasm for the job.
One solution to feeling stale is to up sticks and change country. Teaching is a flexible career with skills well suited to a stint abroad. So, Careerwise takes a trip to Brussels to find out how teaching in a European school has re-ignited one teacher's passion for the job.
Finally, Fiona Flynn from the Times Educational Supplement visits a school in Harrow which has made visits to schools around the globe one of the fundamental elements of continuing professional development for its staff."

"Careerwise takes a look at male primary school teachers: why is there a shortage, what does it mean for the profession and what can be done about it?
Firstly, the team takes a trip to the Black Country, to look at a primary school which employs twice the national average of male teachers. Teachers there have an interesting insight into what differences men can bring to a school.
We also hear from students and parents about how they feel about a primary workforce comprised mainly of women.
Presenter Peter Curran is then joined in the studio by education expert Jill Clough and Mike Watkins, head of recruitment at the Training and Development Agency for Schools, to discuss how more men can be brought into the profession and why many are loath to sign up in the first place."

"Careerwise explores what the Every Child Matters framework means for teachers. Presenter Peter Curran is joined by Colin Green from the DfES Child Protection Division, and education consultant Jill Clough, who has been working to develop the Common Core of Skills and Knowledge for the Children's Workforce.
Brighton LEA is at the forefront of implementing the Every Child Matters agenda. We sit in on the child protection course they run for NQTs. What are the signs of a child 'in need' and a child 'in need of protection'? And what should teachers, as part of this new joined up children's workforce, do if they have concerns?
Extended schools are the latest development in the ECM agenda. Fiona Flynn visits Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School in Islington, which has been evolving to include a multitude of non-teaching staff in the school over the last four years. What can schools that are just beginning to extend learn from its experiences?"
