Professional Development Offer
Apprenticeships
The Trust is delighted to work with a range of local and national apprenticeship providers to offer opportunities for new and existing staff.
Recently we have given school leavers their first opportunities to enter the work place, supporting them to embark on Teaching Assistant apprenticeships, working with our wonderful pupils and experienced staff.
Next year we are delighted to be supporting a long serving staff member to embark on the Post Graduate Teaching Apprenticeship supporting them to realise their dream of becoming a qualified teacher!
We are keen to work with anyone who would like to utilise the apprenticeship route to support their own professional flourishing.
