SCITT

Thinking of becoming a teacher? Why not train with us, the top performing provider in England.

We are based at Anglia Ruskin University in Chelmsford. We operate as an independent provider of initial teacher training.

Why not have the best of both worlds, a school led course with all the facilities a University can offer including an extensive library, online journals, NUS membership and a bookshop.

“Trainees develop excellent relationships with their tutors, mentors and fellow trainees. There is a real active buzz to lectures and debates are in depth and purposeful.” - Ofsted 2010

We also offer:

A Post Graduate Certificate in Education (60 Master credits)
Enhanced training programme in either English, Mathematics, Science or Special Eductional Needs and Disabilities

Teaching is a challenging and highly rewarding career. Working with children to develop their personal, social and intellectual capacities brings great personal satisfaction.

We are considered to be an intimate provider. Billericay Educational Consortium staff members are very accessible and trainees feel well supported and listened to. We are renowned for producing sound, experienced and reflective Newly Qualified Teachers who are sought after by schools.
