- We offer primary training in 3-7 years and 5-11.
- All trainees are allocated a main placement school which they are based in during the Autumn and Summer term. During the Spring term trainees have a second placement school where they develop their skills in an alternative Key Stage.
- From day one you will be a full member of school life, observing, working, teaching and learning in a classroom.
- You will be based in your school 4 days a week where you will gradually build up your teaching time, observe examples of best practice, participate in group activities and wider professional development.
- You will have a dedicated mentor who will meet with you formally once a week to discuss your progress and help you succeed.
- One day a week will be dedicated to your professional development with sessions delivered at both the University of Derby and at our hub sessions.
- The hub sessions also allow time to network with fellow students and share experiences and learning.
- We value inclusion and all schools within the alliances offering School Direct placements have full disabled access.
