The Tommy Flowers SCITT invites you to embark upon your journey to becoming an exceptional teacher, by discovering which of our primary or secondary teacher training courses will nurture you to “truly flourish” (Ofsted), whether that be our Tuition-Fee QTS with PGCE course, our Tuition-Fee QTS only course or the Post Graduate Teaching Apprenticeship.
The Tommy Flowers SCITT is the ONLY teacher training provider in England offering a £3,000+ bursary for ALL of our tuition-fee courses, including primary, secondary PE or history. Just one of the ways in which we prioritise you.
Let Us Prioritise You
With a 100% employment rate, the Tommy Flowers SCITT works in partnership with schools across Milton Keynes, Aylesbury, Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire to create a thriving community where trainee teachers reach their goal of gaining Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Described as being “like a family” (Ofsted), our partnership schools’ high standards and supportive relationships lead the majority of Tommy Flowers SCITT graduates to choose employment in their placement schools.
Combining cutting-edge research with our innovative practical curriculum, applicants have the choice to attain a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) to complement Qualified Teacher Status. The PGCE is taught face-to-face in Milton Keynes and awarded by Northumbria University.
Diversity is at the heart of teaching in Milton Keynes and the teaching profession should be representative of the communities it serves. As a SCITT, we welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Our cohorts bring together trainee teachers with varying prior experiences: whether you are about to graduate from university, are looking for a change of career or to take the step up from teaching assistant to teacher, we have a personalised approach to suit your journey. Find out about the pathways some of our recent graduates have taken into teaching.
