Green banner saying Outstanding Teacher Education in Milton Keynes

Welcome to the Tommy Flowers SCITT

We are delighted to invite you to embark upon a journey into education with the Tommy Flowers SCITT. We see teacher development not simply as a course, but as a transformative experience where theory and practice are woven together through a golden thread that runs from initial teacher training into a sustained and successful career in education.

For those looking to become primary or secondary school teachers, we provide a range of apprenticeship and non-employment Initial Teacher Training courses described by Ofsted as being ‘exceptional’. However, our offer extends beyond initial teacher training. We are proud to provide a Level 5 Teaching Assistant Apprenticeship, supporting aspiring and current teaching assistants to develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to make a meaningful impact in the classroom.

Alongside this, our high quality training Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme and Education Masterclasses ensure that educators at every stage of their career can continue to grow, refine their practice, and stay connected to the latest thinking in national and local education.
