Swift Teacher Training

Dear Parent / Carers,

 

Teacher Training Opportunities in South Devon and Torbay, starting September 2025

 

Are you interested in being part of a growing number of people training to become primary teachers in our area?

 

There are many great reasons to get into primary teaching:

  • ·value a career where you can make a difference to children's lives and the wider communities;
  • ·enjoy the flexibility of having school holidays so you can spend more time doing what matters most to you;
  •  benefit from a starting salary as a teacher of £30,000 and an excellent Teachers’ Pension Scheme.

 

Westcliff Primary Academy is actively supporting people in South Devon and Torbay to get into teaching. Teacher recruitment is really important to us because one of the best ways of providing a high-quality education is to attract talented people into the profession.

 

Through our partnership with SWIFT Teacher Training, you can access high-quality, school-based training with more of the training experience based close to home, including the option of a placement at Westcliff and other local schools.

 

To find out more about the courses on offer from SWIFT Teacher Training visit www.swiftteachertraining.org.uk. Applications open on 1 October 2024 for a September 2025 start.

 

While many national headlines show teacher recruitment is down, we are beginning to make a difference. SWIFT Teacher Training has recruited 90 new teachers from South West this year who are starting their training in September 2024!

 

We would be very interested to hear from you if you are thinking of becoming a teacher, or know someone who is. We are looking for people who have (or will have) a degree, have a passion for teaching and want to inspire young people to fulfil their potential. Further information about eligibility criteria can be found HERE.

If you would like to find out more, please check out our FAQs. If you have questions not covered here, please email info@swiftteachertraining.org.uk who will get in touch to offer advice and the opportunity to attend a school visit.
