We are a trust that has the highest aspirations for all our students. To this end, we have a curriculum that is rich in academic rigour.

We always seek to employ staff who are experts in their subjects and who inspire their pupils through a deep understanding of and passion for their subject. We have the highest aspirations for our students regardless of their starting points.

We believe all children should have access to the best things that have been known and thought.

·       Knowledge is powerful and empowering: it allows us to change the life chances of our pupils.

·       Teachers are an authority in their subject, and their effectiveness depends on the knowledge they have of their subject and their passion for it.

·       We inspire our students through knowledge and foster a spirit of scholarship.

·       Praise is proportionate. We nurture a climate of resilience and perseverance in which academic success is always celebrated.

·       Staff and students are knowledgeable and articulate whilst demonstrating good manners and poise. Students are encouraged to write and to speak with confidence while demonstrating a depth of knowledge.

·       Our schools are characterised by a collegiate atmosphere where both students and teachers share high-quality resources to achieve the highest rates of progress and attainment.

·       Healthy competition and team spirit are encouraged, both inside and outside the classroom, so that students both compete and collaborate to be successful.

Our schools provide opportunities for students to widen their horizons through enriching experiences aimed at exposing students to successful people from various professions. We offer pupils extensive support with their applications to top universities and the most suitable routes to employment for them.

Our schools are child-centred organisations that work together to implement a knowledge-rich curriculum that transforms children’s lives and overcomes any barriers they face.

Train to teach with Future Teacher Training

Future Teacher Training (formerly the Pimlico-London SCITT) is the top School-Centred Initial Teacher Training provider in London. In a short space of time we have grown from our first cohort of nine trainees to span a wide variety of fifteen secondary subjects and an exciting primary programme, with training opportunities now offered in both our London and Hertfordshire training hubs.

We know that highly knowledgeable and skilled teachers make the biggest impact on pupil outcomes and we are committed to continuously developing teachers’ subject knowledge and pedagogy so that they can achieve the highest of aspirations for themselves and their pupils. Accordingly, this education also endows them with the freedom to choose, the freedom to question and the freedom to reason.

We believe in:

• pitching our lessons high and carefully scaffolding to ensure that every student can access every lesson.
• lessons that engage and challenge, delivered by research-informed and highly knowledgeable practitioners.
• recruiting dynamic teachers with a passion for their subject, a love of learning and a desire to develop their own subject knowledge.

The select nature of our SCITT ensures that each trainee teacher receives a bespoke programme that leads to QTS alongside a PGCE designed to promote innovation and excellence in education. We are extremely proud of our excellent outcomes and almost perfect employment rates, and we maintain great links with our alumni, who keep us informed of their progress as they become the leaders of curriculum and pastoral education in their new schools.
