Train to Teach
THE SCHOOL - BASED WAY INTO TEACHING
| "CLTA was perfect for me, the training provided was brilliant and the support from staff was fantastic and it made me feel at ease straight away. I would recommend CLTA to people who are considering getting into teaching because you are able to have a lot of time in school which is amazing for development and progression and then you are provided with training which consolidates this learning."

| “Twelve months ago embarking on a change of career was a huge risk that, thanks to CLTA, has proved to be the best career decision I have made. Whilst completing the School Direct training with CLTA has proved to be challenging it has also been hugely rewarding. I have received excellent training with subject specialists in a variety of areas along with opportunities to experience different learning environments and work with outstanding teachers. CLTA and their partner schools provide supportive placements that help to motivate and encourage students through what is a demanding process. These opportunities have helped me to look towards my NQT year with confidence knowing I have had the best possible start to my teaching career”. Caroline Willis |

I have received fantastic support from day 1 and despite all the challenges of the year the training has been excellent, and I feel so much more confident being in a classroom now." Lindsey Esling |
