school centred initial teacher training with qts

                                                                                                             

The CREC Early Years Partnership (CEYP) SCITT programme offers a one-year full-time early years school-based route to qualification as a primary or early years teacher with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and postgraduate (PG) accreditation.
 
CREC Early Years Partnership is a consortium comprising the Centre for Research in Early Childhood, St Thomas Centre Nursery School , 3 regional teaching school alliances and over 50 'Good' or 'Outstanding' schools from across 4 local authority regions.



The course has been devised to develop high-quality teachers to work in the early years and the course, in addition to covering all Teaching Standards , includes an emphasis on multi-agency working, leadership in the EYFS , working with 2-year-olds, SEN/D, and practitioner research.  
 
The SCITT programme benefits from the direct contributions of Professor Chris Pascal  and Professor Tony Bertram  CREC, both highly experienced teacher educators, and a wider team of early years specialists and placement mentors. This course also carries postgraduate accreditation (60 Masters credits) awarded by Birmingham City University .
