Train to Teach

Initial Teacher Training (ITT)

Mercia Learning Alliance offers aspiring teachers high quality training opportunities in primary and secondary schools.  Working with either The University of Sheffield or The Sheffield School Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT) provider, you will shadow colleagues and learn about teaching in a range of schools across the city. The placements in our partner schools, many of which are outstanding, provide an invaluable insight into teaching as a profession, and your training will prepare you fully for a successful career in teaching.

We will offer support with recruitment and job applications and should a suitable vacancy arise in one of our network of schools, you may be fast-tracked to the interview stage.
