Appropriate Body

London South Teaching School Hub is an Appropriate Body for Early Career Teachers based in Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark. We offer three different levels of Appropriate Body Service.

All schools that offer statutory induction are required to register their ECTs with an Appropriate Body. This service is separate to the Early Career Framework programme they are completing.Induction Tutors should register each new ECT with London South's Appropriate Body Service on ECT Manager.

For guidance on how to register your ECTs on ECT Manager, follow this link.
