United Teaching is Outstanding!

Catgeories : Group news

We are delighted to announce that United Teaching has been judged to be an Outstanding teacher training provider, following a recent inspection.

United Teaching is the teacher training scheme for United Learning. Trainees receive on-the-job training while based in a United Learning school. 

In a glowing report, inspectors confirmed that United Teaching “offers the highest quality of education and training”, with trainees “exceptionally well prepared for the rewards and challenges of the teaching profession”. The report also remarks that the programme is “extremely well-structured”, comprising a “logical sequence of ideas and tasks that link theory with classroom practice very effectively”. 

The report particularly highlights that “Well-being is right at the top of leaders’ priorities”, with trainees confident that “everyone, from subject and professional mentors to senior leaders, takes great care to support them”. United Teaching’s mentoring training programme is described as “rigorous”, resulting in trainees receiving “high-quality developmental feedback” which “has a positive impact on trainees’ practice and confidence”. 

The course’s focus on subject expertise was also emphasised, as leaders work with United Learning subject advisers to ensure “trainees receive expert training based on up-to-date research”. Meanwhile, primary trainees benefit from a “carefully thought-out programme to develop their expertise in teaching early reading effectively”.
