Tanbridge leads new Teacher Training Hub

Inspiring Future Teachers (IFT) have launched a brand-new centralised teacher training SCITT hub for Sussex, based at Tanbridge House School in Horsham, West Sussex. 

The Tanbridge Teacher Training Hub (TTTH) will work in partnership with schools across the area in order to deliver exceptional training experiences for those looking to get into teaching via a school-based training and education route.

Training and recruiting teachers through this programme will allow the partnership of schools to "grow their own" and aims to offer successful candidates a long-term career pathway. 

Rebecca Harry, the Tanbridge SCITT hub lead, said : “This is a truly exciting development, not only for Tanbridge House School, but for all our partner schools in the region. For anyone considering a career in teaching, this new partnership with schools in the area means that trainees can be placed in a school best suited to them in a convenient location for them too.

Tanbridge is delighted that all trainees on the programme will spend one day a week with us, in addition to the four days they will be with their host school , to study a carefully mapped out curriculum that supports the hands-on training and prepares them for life as a teacher.”
