This is an exciting opportunity to enter the profession and gain significant teaching experience while studying to become a fully qualified teaching professional.

The Graduate Trainee Teacher role, in conjunction with the Graduate Teacher Programme and Buckinghamshire University, offers talented and motivated graduates the chance to study towards the full range of professional teaching qualifications while gaining significant on the job and classroom experience and earning a competitive salary which reflects your prior academic success. On completion of the apprenticeship, you will hold a PGTA (level 6) or PGCE (level 7) academic teaching qualification, QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) allowing you to practice in the UK and abroad and a teaching apprenticeship as well as having a minimum of 600 hours of teaching experience.

Successful applicants for this program will be resilient, reflective and driven to succeed in everything they do.

If you are interested in the Graduate Trainee Teacher Apprentice position, we would recommend that you contact us for an informal conversation to find out more, or to visit us at Court Fields. In order to do this, please contact Martyn Dudley, Deputy Headteacher via the school office.
