Our Curriculum
Our curriculum is designed to support trainees in becoming confident, resilient teachers who work well with others and continually grow in their practice. We will help them build resilience by giving them the knowledge, skills, and behaviours they need to thrive in the classroom and beyond—grounded in reflection and research-based approaches. All our training is based on the Initial Teacher Training and Early Career Framework.
​
Both our primary and secondary curriculum are delivered as a 4-1 model, meaning trainees are in school 4 days per week and at our training centre 1 day per week. During ITAP (Intensive Training and Practice) weeks trainees will be at our training centre 4 days and in their schools for 1 day.
