"Teach in Kent and the TES institute have been
extremely supportive. Being able to pick up the phone at any moment in training
with any queries or even personal struggles and having such great support has
been invaluable. Dan and the rest of the team are extremely positive, and
enthusiastic and always have a great 'can do' infectious attitude. I couldn't
recommend a course any more than TIK."
Alex - Secondary Physics Trainee
"I would highly recommend this route into teaching. The
amount of support and organisation has made it manageable, easy to follow and
enjoyable. We've all encouraged each other and it's definitely the best
decision I've made."
Georgina - Primary Post Graduate

have really loved visiting different schools and settings ( both secondary and
primary) and seeing the difference in the way schools deliver the curriculum.”
Fliss
– Secondary English Trainee
“Training with Teach In Kent
has been an extremely positive experience! The team are so helpful, always on
hand to answer any queries and have been so encouraging and supportive
throughout the year. The online sessions are engaging, informative and
practical with the opportunity to ask questions and talk to other students each
week. I would definitely recommend this route to others.”
Rebecca
– Primary Post Graduate Teaching Apprentice
“I
have found the training plan to be set out in such a helpful way that supports
my build-up of skills without causing stress; definitely no being thrown in the
deep end and a very helpful training provider.”
Maisie - Secondary Chemistry Trainee
“The course has been well structured and everyone involved
has been extremely knowledgeable , helpful and understanding. Coming from a
completely different environment, this was one of my biggest concerns and it
definitely didn’t need to be. I have felt needed and that I was an asset
straight away.”
Louise – Secondary English Trainee
“I can't think of a better way to learn to
teach. On the job training with a really good level of theory.”
Thomas - Primary Post Graduate Teaching
Apprentice
"Teach in
Kent's insightful employment seminars provided invaluable interview, contract
and CV tips which have given me the confidence and knowledge I needed when
looking for my first job as a qualified teacher."
Kimberley – Primary Trainee
“My in-school mentor is always in hand to ask any question I
have, however big or small.”
Nikki – Secondary Chemistry Trainee
“The
course is full of different support networks and you are made to feel that
anything is possible! My mentor and ITT coordinator are a great support to me
and they are able to be well informed about their role in my training via the
contact with TiK.”
Aleisha
- Primary Post Graduate Teaching Apprentice
"The
support I have received from both TIK and TES has been fantastic! My pathway
tutor is kind and approachable, and my personal circumstances have been met
with help, support, and guidance."
Nathan
- Primary Post Graduate Teaching Apprentice
"The Teach in Kent course has been extremely beneficial in my
journey to become a teacher. Initially coming from a non-teaching
background I was unsure how I would be able to quickly adapt to the
classroom. The structure of the course allows maximum exposure time within the
classroom, whilst giving a workable learning load through the use of online
lectures and digital platforms. The staff have been on hand to support you with
any support, queries or struggles which gives that additional comfort in
knowing that you will not be completing your training year alone. Whilst the
course operates digitally for the learning, the course includes regular face to
face check-ins with your tutor, who is able to make sure you are kept on track
and pass each unit. Overall I would recommend this course to anyone considering
teaching as a career."
Steve – Primary Trainee
Great to see our trainee make such quick progress in their careers!
