New to Teaching Enrichment Offer

At TPAT we ensure our teachers who are new to the profession are given the best possible start to their career by providing a high level of support and wealth of opportunity in their early years. Our offer is facillitated by TPAT subject and pedagogy experts who in turn benefit as part of their own professional development. From ensuring ECTs have in-person support (both in their schools and from within the Trust), to arranging peer support with ECTs in other schools, we know that our teachers will have a great start to their careers at TPAT - all learning together.
