Yorkshire Inclusive TSA We are training the next generation of outstanding teachers for the Leeds area. We are committed to providing the highest standard of education and we want to recruit student teachers who share the same commitment. Our current cohort of student teachers are training to teach in secondary in both mainstream and special school settings. We provide training and placements of the highest quality to deliver a truly bespoke training package. Our placement strategy is aimed at giving you the best preparation possible for your teaching career. During the programme you will spend time in a variety of schools and contexts including mainstream schools, special schools, Pupil Referral Units (PRU), and the Medical Needs Teaching Service. We are committed to helping you develop professionally, well beyond your initial teacher training and Newly Qualified Teacher (NQT) year by means of an extensive programme of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) opportunities. As an Appropriate Body for NQTs we offer our trainees a coherent two year programme of support. You will be supported through the process from start to finish by Jan Linsley (Teaching School Manager); Sue Alexander (Senior Administrator for the Teaching School) and a number of secondary Specialist Leaders of Education. Starting on the first day of the Autumn Term, you will be based in your "home" school. You will be seen as a member of staff, quickly appreciating the workplace and seeing theory put into practice every day. You will undertake training by staff in your "home" school as well as workshops and other activities with student teachers from across our Alliance of Schools. When you are ready, you will start to take responsibility to deliver parts of lessons on your own. The ITT programme will build your confidence and subject knowledge and give you the necessary skills to become an effective classroom practitioner. As you become more confident and competent you will take on greater responsibility until you are teaching full lessons.
