Trainee Teacher

Trainee Teacher - Nationwide (UK)
School-Based Salaried & Tuition-Fee Routes Available

Thinking about becoming a teacher but not sure where to start?
Want hands-on classroom experience while training, not just theory?
Ready to turn your degree into a career that genuinely makes a difference?

We are working with schools across the UK to recruit ambitious graduates and career-changers into Trainee Teacher positions starting throughout the academic year. Opportunities are available nationwide - including London, the South East, Midlands, North West and beyond - across primary, secondary and specialist settings.

These are school-based teacher training routes, meaning you'll train inside a real classroom from day one, supported by experienced mentors while working towards Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Both salaried and tuition-fee training pathways are available, depending on location, subject and experience.

What the Trainee Teacher Role Involves:

• Training in a school, not just at university

• Teaching lessons under supervision while gradually increasing responsibility

• Receiving structured mentoring, coaching and regular feedback

• Working towards QTS (and PGCE in many cases)

• Gaining experience in behaviour management, planning and assessment

• Being part of a professional school staff team from day one

Why Train This Way?

• Learn on the job with real classroom experience

• Earn while you train (on salaried routes)

• Strong employment prospects upon qualification

• Tailored support and subject-specific development

• A clear, practical route into a long-term teaching career

We support applicants at every stage - from initial application and school matching to interview preparation and securing the right training route.
