Futures Teaching Alliance

Futures Teaching Alliance is a collaborative partnership of schools across Coventry, Warwickshire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire and the West Midlands, committed to recruiting and training enthusiastic individuals who are passionate about becoming outstanding Early Years, Primary and secondary teachers.

 Our goal is to ensure that all of our ITT trainees graduate, prepared and inspired, to create an exceptional and inspirational learning experience for pupils.

 


School-Centred Initial Teacher Training

Futures Teaching Alliance recruits Early Years, Primary, Secondary and Special-school trainees in partnership with Teach First to provide School-Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT).  Our mission is to ensure that all of our trainees are supported and committed to creating exceptional and inspirational learning experiences and to ‘building brighter futures’ for the young people in our schools.

Best Practice Network Teacher Apprenticeship

Futures Teaching Alliance is a Regional Delivery Partner for Best Practice Network’s (BPN) ITT Teacher Apprenticeship. The Teacher Apprenticeship enables trainee teachers to immerse themselves in the day-to-day realities of the classroom, gaining valuable hands-on experience under the mentorship of expert teachers. This approach not only bridges the experience gap but also ensures that apprentice teachers are equipped and prepared to step into full teaching roles with confidence and competence.
