Training:Programme Structure:
Weekly Centre-Based Training: Apprentices attend university-led training sessions one day per week, typically on Wednesdays. These sessions are conducted at Middlesex University's Hendon campus and are delivered by phase and subject experts, focusing on integrating theoretical knowledge with practical application. Intensive Training and Practice (ITaP)
Weeks: During Terms 1 and 2, apprentices participate in full-time university-based training weeks. These ITaP weeks are designed to provide concentrated learning experiences, allowing trainees to delve deeply into pedagogical theories and practices.
Contrasting Mainstream Placement: To ensure a well-rounded teaching experience, apprentices undertake a 12-week placement in a contrasting mainstream educational setting. This placement offers exposure to different teaching environments and student needs, broadening the apprentice's professional competencies.
Final Teaching Phase: In the concluding six weeks of the programme, apprentices are immersed in full-time teaching, handling at least 80% of a standard teaching timetable. This phase is critical for consolidating teaching skills and demonstrating readiness for independent classroom management.
Each apprentice is paired with a dedicated school-based mentor who provides ongoing support, guidance, and feedback throughout the training period. This mentorship is integral to the apprentice's development, offering personalised assistance and facilitating the integration of theoretical knowledge into practical teaching scenarios.
