Eligibility and Funding for the ECTE https://www.gov.uk/guidance/eligibility-and-funding-for-the-early-career-teacher-entitlement

Guidance on grant funding, including the funding amounts across all academic years, is published online: 
• Grant funding for early career training programme for mentors (ECTPM) - GOV.UK
• Grant funding for early career teacher entitlement (ECTE) year 2 time off timetable and mentor support - GOV.UK

Schools do not need to apply for grant funding directly. The DfE collects evidence via their online Register Early Career Teachers Service and induction data from your Appropriate Body, helping to reduce administrative burden. 

If schools have further enquiries relating to their grant funding, please email the DfE helpdesk:continuing-professional-development@digital.education.gov.uk
