Qualitative Research on BAME Recruitment and Retention into Teaching

A team from Cardiff School of Education and Social Policy (CSESP) and Cardiff School of Management, led by Dr Susan Davis and Chantelle Haughton, Senior Lecturers in CSESP has been successful in securing a research contract from Welsh Government to evaluate Ethnic Minority Recruitment into ITE and the Teaching profession in Wales.   This important project which will run until the end of March 2021, will also establish perceptions of serving ethnic minority teachers about their ongoing career progression, and will engage learners aged 14+ to gain an understanding of their views of teaching as a possible career, thus informing changes required to increase the recruitment of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic students to the teaching profession.   Please see some infographics here:BAME Recruitment and Retention into Teaching.
