In 2016, the TWP Advisory Group met on 27 October and 15 December. Prior to 2016, in recent years the group met once a year in December.
There are no plans to publish TWP Advisory Group minutes. The group provides free and frank advice to Scottish Ministers on the requirements for newly qualified teachers. The advice of the group contributes to Scottish Ministers' annual guidance to SFC on initial teacher education. Scottish Ministers' guidance to SFC for 2016 is available at:
http://www.sfc.ac.uk/communications/Announcements/2016/SFCAN012016.aspx
The group has no running costs.
