The largest sector-wide survey of FE and training professionals conducted by the Education and Training Foundation (ETF) has revealed the most rewarding and frustrating aspects of working in the sector.
The landmark survey of 4,252 teachers, trainers, support staff and managers working across the FE and Training sector found that 82% of respondents said that the most rewarding aspect of their job is inspiring students, changing lives and making a difference. For many respondents, this reward comes from seeing learners grow in confidence, and supporting learners towards their career goals. For almost one in ten (7%) of respondents, being part of a team of a community of FE professionals emerged as the most rewarding aspect of work.
