We are offering two routes:

• Postgraduate teaching apprenticeships. This new, nationally-recognised, work-based route into teaching is a salaried training programme aimed at graduate career changers, unqualified teachers, teachers, and/or teaching assistants.
• Primary postgraduate ITT programme. This school-based route is for graduates with less experience of working in schools, leading classes, and/or taking responsibility for teaching on a regular basis, providing opportunity for trainees to gain QTS with the option of a PGCE.

Trainees on this route are employed by the host school as an unqualified teacher for the duration of the year. The cost of the salary is covered by the training school. Host schools can draw upon the apprenticeship levy to fund programme costs.

Trainees on this route are classed as students and, as such, are not employed by the host school or FLA. They pay their own tuition fees, and the FLA receives a payment from the University of Reading to fund the administration, supplementary training and mentor costs. There are no additional costs to FLA member schools.
