What Do Our Trainees Say?

"Having regular contact with my SCITT tutor each week meant that the SCITT team never felt far away. I never felt that I was on my own. I found my subject knowledge sessions super helpful and definitely tailored to our needs”

"Being integrated into the schools so early meant that I was able to feel like part of the team. Having those weekly sessions of core training allowed me to reflect on the time spent at school and to meet some amazing people who I now consider close friends"
