As we head into the final few weeks of the training year, our trainees are now in school full-time and preparing for their final Teachers’ Standards reviews.

We wanted to take a moment to celebrate our fantastic Guildford County cohort, pictured here enjoying their final Professional Studies training day together. ✨

It has been a pleasure to watch the trainees grow in confidence, develop their teaching expertise and embrace every challenge along the way. You're nearly there! We can't wait to see the impact you will make in your future classrooms.

Many thanks to James Prickett Photography for the images.

Teaching and Parenting

For those starting a SCITT teacher training programme this September whilst also caring for children at home, it can bring a mix of excitement and uncertainty.

We wanted to share two online workshops from The MTPT Project this July that may be helpful for anyone preparing to balance teacher training alongside parenting responsibilities:

• Realistic Expectations
• Managing Change

The sessions are designed for parents beginning their ITT journey and focus on the realities of the training year, managing change at home and work, and finding approaches that support both family life and professional development.

If you’re about to begin teacher training and wondering how it will all fit together, these workshops may offer some reassurance, practical guidance, and a supportive space to reflect before September. 💛

We just had to share this video from our Primary trainees’ MUSIC Professional Studies session this week 🥁🎶

From copy clapping to exploring rhythm and listening to the beat, the trainees experienced first-hand how children can develop musical skills through hands-on, immersive learning experiences.

There was plenty of energy, teamwork and rhythm… and we think one of our trainees may already have had some drumming experience 👀🥁 Can you spot who it was?

Huge thank you to our specialist facilitator Simon, who made it such an engaging session.

✨ Training Spotlight – Primary Design & Technology ✨

Our Primary trainees gained hands-on experience in teaching Design and Technology in the latest training day. They were challenged to use their prior knowledge and sewing/construction skills to design and create either a pencil case, slipper, cuddly toy or 3D model 🧵✂️

It was fantastic to see our fab trainees working collaboratively and using their creativity, problem-solving and presentation skills throughout the day 🌟
