If you have ever considered a career in primary teaching, the part-time primary teacher training course run by Nottinghamshire Torch SCITT could be the perfect opportunity for you. This course is designed for individuals who want to gain the necessary skills and qualifications to become a qualified teacher, but who are not able to commit to full-time study.
The course runs from September 2023 to April 2025. During the first year, participants spend two days a week in school and one day per week attending core training sessions. This format provides a balance between practical experience in the classroom and the theoretical knowledge necessary to be an effective teacher.
During the second phase of the course, which runs from September 2024 to April 2025, participants will spend three days per week in school, allowing for even more hands-on experience in a real classroom setting. Throughout the course, participants will work towards achieving Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) from Sheffield Hallam University. The University training will take place at the SCITT Training Centre.
