Teacher Training
The Three Spires Institute of Education is dedicated to preparing and empowering aspiring teachers for success in the dynamic field of teaching.
Through a collaborative effort with Teach First, the institute delivers a School Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT) program. This program not only leads to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) but also grants a Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) with master’s level credits.
The institute’s research-oriented course provides a hands-on experience guided by skilled practitioners, allowing trainees to discover and utilize their skills and passion to benefit children’s lives. The program involves immersive training in a school environment, engaging with stakeholders, and participating in weekly training sessions to enhance professional practice.
As a school-led initiative, the program emphasizes learning from experienced practitioners. Trainees progressively move from observing effective practices to team teaching and eventually delivering solo lessons. The curriculum is structured to balance subject expertise with effective teaching methodologies. The program aims to manage workload effectively while prioritising the well-being of aspiring teachers, supporting their journey to becoming successful professionals in the field.
