Salaried Teacher Training

Train to Teach with our Salaried Teacher Training Programme.

Are you passionate about making a difference in education? Our Salaried Teacher Training Programme offers you the chance to gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) while earning a salary and making an impact in the classroom from day one.

The ITT Salaried route is designed for you to earn while you train. Trainees on the ITT Salaried programme are employed as unqualified teachers while they complete their training. You’ll gain hands-on experience in the classroom, receiving a salary while working toward your teaching qualifications.

Another major benefit of this route is that there are no tuition fees. These are covered by us, meaning you can focus on learning and teaching without the financial burden of student debt.
