School Based (School Direct) is a delivered in partnership with schools.
The key feature of this course is that the majority of the year is spent on placement working alongside experienced colleagues in schools. The course is for people who want to train to become teachers, spending the majority of their training time in school alongside qualified teachers.
The course aims to harness the knowledge and experience of school colleagues in the delivery of courses, working in partnership with the experience of accredited ITT providers such as universities. Schools, and the mentors within them, provide the vast majority of the training.
Schools benefit by being more directly involved in student recruitment and the delivery of the course.
