UNITED TEACHING

United Teaching is United Learning’s groundbreaking Initial Teacher Training Scheme. The UK’s first of its kind. Delivered in partnership with Goldsmiths, University of London, our programme is designed to help you become the senior teacher you have the talent and passion to become. Here, teacher training is a path to senior leadership roles across the country.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

There are over 50 schools in United Learning. By working together we can achieve more than any single school could. That’s the reality behind our guiding philosophy: ‘The best in everyone’. You’ll be joining an education group that shares resources, ideas, expertise, support and time. An approach designed to maximise the opportunities of our students and teachers alike.

From the outset, I was encouraged to take full responsibility for my classes; this gave me the confidence and freedom to find my own voice and to establish the atmosphere I wanted in my lessons.

My year as a United Teaching trainee was an incredible (and incredibly demanding!) experience. Throughout the year, the support of the other trainees within the Group was invaluable.

I have always thought that a school-based route was the best way to prepare teachers for the job, and I still do. It is more immersive, and more real, and even though the year is very intense, by the time your NQT year comes around, you are more than prepared for life in a school.
