What trainees say about usTwo Mile Ash ITT made
sure that I felt supported
every step of the way
and my SBT was
wonderful,
Through the School Direct programme,
I was placed within a Year 2 class and
gradually, throughout the year, took on
the role of a teacher, which prepared
me well for my NQT year and my
further career. The reputation of the
Two Mile Ash ITTP is very well
deserved.
The staff are very
understanding and
supportive and will back
students through thick
and thin.
I feel so well prepared for
my NQT year and cannot
wait to get to know my
new class!
