What is the Future Teachers Programme?

The Future Teachers Programme is a scheme across England and Wales, which is designed to aid the current Teacher shortage, by attracting and supporting graduates who are looking to pursue a career in teaching but wish to gain paid school based experience before starting a teacher training course.

How does it work?

Your journey will begin working as a Graduate Teaching Assistant on a full-time basis at one of our client primary schools across the South of Manchester for up to a year. As a Graduate TA you will fulfil a range of tasks to get an understanding of what it would be like to be a teacher. This includes supporting pupils across all activities throughout their studies, in small groups  and 1:1, to assisting class teachers from all departments. You will have the chance to work with teachers in your specialism and get involved with planning/delivering your own lessons!

Upon the successful completion of your 1 year experience as a graduate teaching assistant, you’re school based teacher training programme will begin. Either within a lead training school, or you can go on to apply for your own PGCE.

What are the benefits?

Benefits of the Future Teachers Programme include the opportunity to gain a year’s experience as a Graduate TA with one of our reputable South Manchester Primary Schools.
