Our aim is to help you become a committed, confident and creative teacher so well train you in the essential tools you need to kick-start your career in education. Well train you to teach across the years, covering topics from learning how to introduce students to atoms, elements and particles, to thermodynamics and inorganic chemistry. Youll also learn how to demonstrate impressive chemical reactions safely As you progress, youll increase your ability to handle the ever-evolving teaching environment, and by the time your course is complete, youll be in a position to continue developing your understanding, knowledge and skills throughout your professional life. Taught modules, assignments and School Based Training are structured around the development of your Progress Journal which demonstrates your progress against our ITE Core Curriculum. Our ambitious curriculum incorporates the ITT Core Content Framework (DfE, 2019) and the nationally agreed competences - the Teachers Standards, which all teachers must meet throughout their career.

Enhancing Employability Skills:

We believe we promote a strong sense of belonging to a genuine learning community, which results in the development of professional confidence. This is enhanced by our excellent school partnerships.

PLACEMENTS:

Two-thirds of your course takes place in school and we ensure that you are offered a number of placements in a wide range of educational establishments. You will do work placements in at least two different schools and also visit others – including a primary school and or a post-16 setting where appropriate. This all helps you to see how teachers are working in practice and gives you a wealth of experience. You will have subject and professional mentors in school who will guide and support your studies and provide you with feedback.
