This new, salaried route to Qualified Teacher Status provides an employer levy-funded, salaried route into primary or secondary school teaching, and is free of charge for apprentices, allowing graduates to earn while they learn on the job. The 10-month course runs from September 2025 through to the following June, with a minimum of 20% off-the-job training throughout the year. This means that apprentices get the best of outstanding university-led training alongside being embedded in a school setting.
Candidates can apply to train for a range of secondary subjects, or follow a general primary, 3-7, or a special educational needs (SEND) pathway for our primary programme.
In order to be accepted onto the programme, candidates will need to be employed in a school as an unqualified teacher.
More information will be available on our website shortly. In the meantime, please complete the Expression of Interest form to ensure that we can keep you informed.
