Train to Teach at Elsley
We are fully committed to developing new teachers and work with a range of outstanding providers to ensure that Elsley Primary School is an excellent place to begin a career in teaching.
Graduate Teaching Assistant (TA) programme is a programme we have developed at Elsley Primary. On this programme you are employed as a full-time member of staff, working alongside our teachers and experienced teaching assistants. Regular training is given to all members of staff with our graduate TAs receiving additional, specific training aimed at supporting them on a route into teaching.
School Direct is a school-based professional training programme aimed at recent graduates and career-changers. There are two routes: Salaried and Non-Salaried. On the Salaried programme, you are employed by your placement school on an unqualified rate, whilst also undertaking a University programme. On both programmes you are based in a school, working alongside experienced teachers to grow your confidence and skills. You will work closely with a mentor who will guide you in the planning, delivery, and evaluation of lessons.
