Programme of Teach FE:
The Teach FE process is comprised of three phases.
Phase One
Training Qualification UK say; “This qualification is suitable for individuals who are not currently teaching but can meet the practice requirements, including a teaching practice log, two teaching placements, and observed teaching practice requirements of the qualification.”
Phase Two
The Society for Education and Training believe; "that trainee teachers at Essential Teaching UK will enjoy the ongoing support of their peer group as they go on to undertake QTLS with the Society for Education and Training. With many candidates already applying for QTLS immediately after they have qualified, we believe that continuity will prove an appealing prospect."
Phase Three
The Teacher Coach asks; “Are you passionate about education and eager to make a difference in the lives of young people? Do you have a degree or extensive work experience in a relevant subject area? If so, our Teach FE initial teacher training programme is the perfect way for you to start your career in teaching.”
