Are you a graduate considering a career as a Primary School Teacher?
Would you like to train in a highly supportive environment where you’ll be guided every step of the way?
Do you want to gain QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) and real classroom experience at the same time?

Then this is the opportunity you’ve been looking for!

We are excited to be working with an Outstanding and innovative Primary Academy in Enfield, currently recruiting two enthusiastic and ambitious graduates to join their in-school teacher training programme (SCITT) starting this September.

This is a salaried, full-time position, and an ideal route into teaching for graduates who are ready to begin a rewarding career in education.

What’s on Offer:

• Full teacher training via SCITT, leading to QTS
• A structured training programme delivered by expert mentors and leaders
• Hands-on classroom experience from day one
• Supportive and inclusive school culture
• No prior teaching experience needed – just a passion for working with children and a commitment to education
• Opportunity to progress within the school and across a wider trust

Ideal Candidate:

• A recent graduate (any discipline considered)
• Minimum of Grade C/4 in GCSE English and Maths
• A strong interest in education and working with children
• A committed, reflective, and enthusiastic approach to learning
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• A desire to train and grow into a fully qualified primary teacher

This is a brilliant stepping stone into the teaching profession – particularly for those seeking real experience, professional development, and a direct route to QTS without going through a university-based PGCE.
