What is the Postgraduate Teacher Apprenticeship?
The Teacher Apprenticeship is a school-based training programme. This pathway is completely free for the learner, as it is funded through the Apprenticeship Levy.
- Learners will be employed by their school and receive a salary on the Unqualified Teacher Pay scale whilst they learn.
- Successful completion of this programme will result in the award of Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and a Level 6 Teacher Apprenticeship Qualification.
What’s covered
Apprentices will:
- Gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) over 12 months + End-Point Assessment
- Train 4 days a week in your school, with 1 day of online or Face-to-Face learning
- Access dedicated support from an in-school mentor, personal tutor and wellbeing champion
- Apply best practice in pedagogy, classroom management and curriculum
- Reflect on how Catholic values shape their teaching and vocation
Catholic identity is woven throughout the course, preparing trainees to contribute fully to the school’s spiritual and academic life.
