Train to teach
We are delighted to partner with Teach First to deliver our School Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT) programme for our secondary schools. Teach First is a national charity that develops and supports teachers and leaders who are determined to make a difference where it is needed the most. As a training partner, we will be working with Teach First to deliver this one-year teacher training programme, which enables participants to train and develop skills in the classroom.
This programme is ideal for people who are eager to learn on the job and make a difference in their community from day one. Our Newham Community Learning SCITT booklet has further information; please email traintoteach@ncltrust.net to find out more. Please note that this programme is currently aimed at secondary teaching staff.
