Mid Essex Initial Teacher Training (ITT) offers an outstanding, school-based route into becoming a secondary school teacher. With over 30 years of experience training teachers across Essex, we know what it takes to help you develop into a confident, successful teacher.
Unlike a university-based course, the majority of your training takes place in local secondary schools, giving you valuable hands-on classroom experience from the outset. You'll learn from experienced, practising teachers and benefit from a supportive network of mentors and tutors every step of the way.
Successfully complete the programme and you'll gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and a PGCE, accredited by Anglia Ruskin University.
