Training & Development

Routes into teaching

Everyone knows a good teacher - what marks them out is their ability to make a positive difference in the lives of their pupils. As a profession, it can be demanding and occasionally frustrating, but it can also be amazingly satisfying. The rewards are impressive, too. You'll learn new skills and broaden your experience in a job that's different every day. The rates of pay are good - believe it or not - and you'll be in line for other attractive financial incentives. If you have the right skills, the potential for career development is enormous.

So once you've decided to pursue a career in teaching. The next step is to plan for the best way to achieve your qualified teacher status (QTS), enabling you to teach across state-maintained schools across England and Wales. This almost always means completing a programme of initial teacher training (ITT). Combining theoretical learning with at least 18 weeks spent practising teaching on placements in schools, ITT helps you to develop the skills you need to become an effective teacher and achieve qualified teacher status (QTS).

ITT comes in all shapes and sizes, providing options to suit everyone - no matter what your qualifications, experience, preferences or personal circumstances.
