  • This is the ONLY ITT teacher training in school course that focuses purely on teaching Art and Technology. This means that your training is BESPOKE to the practical subjects, and ensures that you are trained not only as an OUTSTANDING teacher, but an OUTSTANDING ART AND/OR TECHNOLOGY TEACHER. This sets us aside from ALL other providers.
     

  • We are the largest provider of Secondary Art and Technology training in the North East of England with placement schools that cover the entire region.
     

  • Our trainees are in high demand across the region and our outcomes are exceptionally high.
     

  • All trainees exit the course with QTS and a PGCE. Our PGCE is offered through Northumbria University, a renowned ITT provider, and provides the opportunity to gain sixty Masters credits.
     

  • We work closely with Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art and our course includes 5 sessions of training with Baltic staff and Artists.
     

  • Trainees will benefit from all the support and leisure services that Northumbria has to offer and may also use the Baltic Library and Archives.
     

  • We have strong links with Art and Technology networks across the North East, including Neaten.
     

  • All secondary trainees have the opportunity to teach in a second subject area, which adds to their employability.
     

  • We have exceptionally strong support mechanisms. All trainees have a subject mentor and a professional mentor or class teacher in school plus a link tutor from the central team. In addition, a large cohort of trainees means that you are never working in isolation.
