Take your next step towards a career in Education

If you want to get into teaching, we can help. We have teachers with experience across the whole education spectrum, who all share a passion and enthusiasm for the industry.

Learn to teach every age group

From preparing to work in schools and support early years to training on our specialist post-16 training courses; we offer plenty of courses to help you work with any age group.

Explore a wide arena of rich and diverse teaching contexts to support your qualification.

Through a mix of theory and practice, our Teacher & Assessor Training courses are interactive and lively, offering a wide range of activities and resources to support your understanding of teaching and learning.

You will get involved in pair and group work, discovery learning, trying out new activities and exploring theories through practical tasks that bring the subject to life and can be transferred to the classroom. You will also carry out research and participate in group tasks where results are presented to your peers to help you develop presentation skills.

There are also opportunities to undertake either a short microteach in a subject of your own choice or teaching practice, depending on the programme. Throughout your course, you will receive carefully tailored support and mentoring designed to help you to improve as a practitioner.
