Colchester Teacher Training Consortium – Inspiring Tomorrow’s Teachers
Would you like your daily work to make a real difference to the lives of others? Are you looking for new opportunities and the chance to develop new skills while pursuing a professional career pathway? If you already have a degree you could qualify as a teacher in primary or secondary education with a year of training.
Established in 2004, the CTTC partnership of local schools annually trains around 80 primary and secondary teachers from its base at Colchester County High School for Girls. The school centred programme, recognised by Ofsted as outstanding, allows trainees to gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) through a combination of taught sessions and practical training alongside colleagues in schools. Pastoral support and mentoring is a strength of the programme and local schools are keen to employ trainees from the partnership, with many NQTs and former trainees moving quickly into leadership and management roles.
