Course summary
In order to apply for this Programme, you must have secured employment in a mainstream school. If you haven’t, please visit our website as we may be able to help you with this https://www.tes.com/institute/courses/become-a-teacher We cannot accept applications from candidates who have not secured employment.
Our course maximises your school experience so that you spend as much time as possible learning from professionals in the classroom. The online learning element of the course offers our trainees a large degree of flexibility with their study. Online learning is bespoke to your learning needs and factors in your previous experience; there is no “one size fits all” with our course.
You will receive support and advice on how to plan, teach and assess learning. During your course, we will organise visits to different types of schools and specialist contexts to give you a rounded educational experience to prepare you for an exciting career in teaching.
Trainees complete 2 assignments during the course. The advice and support offered ensures that we have a high success rate to empower you to reflect effectively on your teaching at the start of your career.
We assess your progress throughout the course to build up an overall picture of the teacher you are becoming. Our innovative online systems gather your evidence throughout the course which avoids unnecessary workload on trainees.
As well as your school-based mentor, your pathway tutor will visit you each term to ensure that you are progressing well and offer you advice on your teaching, assignments and evidence gathering.
School placements
Our apprentices spend most of their year in their employing school. They will arrive on day 1 of term 1 and become fully immersed in school life.
You will undertake a second placement to provide you with a contrasting experience. This placement school will be a contrasting context. You will then return to your home school until the end of the school year.
We will also organise various days during the school year to ensure we have covered the full range of educational contexts available in the UK.

International candidates
You’ll need the right to work in the UK. You already have this if, for example, you:
- are an Irish citizen
- have settled or pre-settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme (you may still be able to apply)
- have indefinite leave to remain in the UK
If you do not already have the right to work in the UK, you may need to apply for a visa. The main visa for salaried courses is the Skilled Worker visa.
To apply for a Skilled Worker visa you need to be sponsored by your employer.
Sponsorship is not available for this course.
If you need a visa, filter your course search to find courses with visa sponsorship.
Alternatively, check if you’re eligible for a different type of visa, such as a Graduate or Family visa, that allows you to train to be a teacher without being sponsored.
