ALP Initial Teacher Training
ALP is a lead partner with Durham SCITT and Carmel Teacher Training Partnership which enables us to recruit and retain our own trainee teachers. Our route offers trainees an extended professional practice placement in one main school, supplemented by an additional placement (around 6 weeks) in another ALP school. Trainees will also spend time at Durham SCITT or Carmel Teacher Training Partnership working in their purpose built training centres with their team of subject specialists, attending general professional study sessions and following a programme of enhancements. This ensures an experience of teaching and training in different settings.
