The Academy offers a range of initial teacher training opportunities which meet the needs of all people trying to enter the profession.
School-led training
School-centred initial teacher training (SCITT) courses are school based practical training, underpinned by educational studies on one day a week, leading to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Trainees spend four days a week in the Academy, teaching lessons and observing teaching within and beyond their subject specialism. Currently, we offer unsalaried positions at primary and secondary level, in a wide range of subjects.

If you are interested in a career in education and want to know more about the training process, then we would love to welcome you to an open evening.
There will be presentations covering a range of topics including:
- what is special about our school and other trainee schools in the area
- what makes a good teacher
- what we are looking for in a trainee
- funding and finance
- day in the life of a teacher.
There will be opportunities to ask questions and have a tour of Wren Academy. Please click here to submit an expression of interest for more details.

We also regularly work with other Higher Education partners such as IOE and Middlesex University, hosting PGCE placement students in a range of subjects. For more information about university led training, click here.
