We want all of our children to achieve their full potential by offering them a high quality, challenging, diverse curriculum.
We aim to foster a community that feels safe, secure, supported and valued.

We are passionate about the role we play in children's development and strive to give every child the active ingredients to become successful and enthusiastic learners.
Finally, we aim to involve the whole school community in shaping the future, empowering individuals to make choices and become better citizens.

About our school experience

Details

School Direct is an exciting opportunity to attend a school led training course which enables you to spend most of your time training in school over a period of a year. This route into teaching is for graduates who prefer the more ‘hands on’ approach. Straight away you will be placed with an outstanding teacher, learning from the very best. You will need to attend the University Of Worcester for approximately 30 days over the year and you will have experience teaching in 2 of our partnership schools.
We can offer you:
Support throughout the year from outstanding practitioners
You will experience mentoring and coaching to enhance your own teaching skills
High retention rates (teachers and ECTs)
University of Worcester work closely with us to ensure your training is seamless for the year
Working in a variety of schools
A guarantee of a job interview at the end of the year if a post is vacant at that time
Superb links with Prince Henry Teaching School Hub, Evesham
