SECONDARY
We aim to train the next generation of outstanding Bradford secondary school teachers. Our schools are committed to providing the highest standard of education for young people in the Bradford District. We are keen to recruit trainee teachers who share the same commitment, who have a love for their subject and a desire to help young people learn. If you share our vision for education, we want to hear from you. We will provide training of the highest quality, delivered by outstanding practitioners in a diverse and stimulating range of schools and settings.
If you are interested in training with Bradford Birth to 19 SCITT see the tables below to view all the courses we offer, and their codes.
From September 2025 course fees are £9535 and can be paid for by a Student Loan from Student Finance England.
While gaining your Qualified Teacher Status at the SCITT, you have the opportunity to complete a Masters-level PGCE at the same time. This certificate is awarded by Sheffield Hallam University.
The SCITT training programme is delivered in many great schools throughout the Bradford area. You will be training by listening to and observing inspiring practitioners. What’s more, you’ll get the opportunity to practise your skills in a safe and supportive classroom environment.
We deliver a bespoke training package that will make the most of your knowledge and skills. After a year’s successful training, you will be recommended for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). As a SCITT, we are committed to helping you develop professionally, well beyond your training and Newly Qualified Teacher year, by means of an extensive programme of Continuing Professional Development opportunities, including the opportunity to complete a full master’s degree.
Your personal tutor and school-based mentor will support you every step of the way as you gain confidence and expertise. Bradford Birth To 19 SCITT tutors have years, often decades of experience in the field, and will give you focused and relevant information to help you thrive as a teacher.
