Course Outline

For a second year, the Three Rivers Learning Trust are delivering a dynamic Initial Teacher Training (ITT) programme based in and around the town of Morpeth, 15 miles and a 20 minute drive from Newcastle. We are working in partnership with Northumbria University offering one year full time Schools Direct tuition placements.
You would become part of a long established network of schools that work closely together to share good practice and expertise. We are fortunate to be able to offer a wide variety of settings including a small village first school, large two form entry first schools, two large middle schools, a special school setting and a large 1500 student high school.
We will provide support, expertise and an array of experiences, allowing our trainees to fulfil their potential as outstanding practitioners.
Successful applicants joining the Three Rivers Trust, will gain a full PGCE with Masters credits from Northumbria University. Trainees will spend four days a week based in host and placement schools, with the fifth day dedicated to bespoke training and university support.
