Central Council supports ART

At the Central Council meeting on the 4th of June in Chester the incoming President Chris Mew presented a list of proposals to delegate. Amongst them were the two following recommendations…

  • Adoption of the Integrated Teacher Training Scheme (ITTS) programme as the recommended scheme for training new instructors, for which adequate funding will be sought and manpower provided
  • Encourage membership of the Association of Ringing Teachers (ART)

Folllowing the Central Council meeting, the ITTS is now the preferred scheme for Ringing Teacher training. The ART is also to be involved in the establishment of a Recruitment and Training Forum to coordinate the work of various groups such as the Central Council and Ringing Foundation.
