🎉 Happy New Year from all of us at Torch SCITT! 🎉

We’ve got so much to look forward to this year – primary and secondary placements, ITAP training weeks, international placements, and the start of second placements.

We’re especially excited about watching our brilliant trainees grow, develop their confidence, and find their feet in the classroom 🌱

Everything we do is rooted in one thing: children at the heart of learning ❤️

Here’s to continuing to create innovative, reflective, and inspiring teachers in the year ahead. Bring on what’s next!

It’s that time of year again ✈️🇫🇮

Torch SCITT is heading to Finland to explore the world-renowned Finnish education system. From pupil wellbeing to teacher autonomy and innovative classroom practice, we’re excited to learn, reflect, and bring fresh ideas back to our training and schools at home.

Follow along as we soak up the learning (and maybe some snow ❄️👀). @TorchSCITT @nova_people

Our trainees had an amazing zoom meet -up with our international placement school.
Next stop: Finland- where they will be heading to Jyväskylä Teaching Training School to teach, learn, and soak up the Finnish approach to education. Such an incredible opportunity to see great practice in action. @torchscitt

We’re celebrating the brilliant enrichment our trainees bring to schools. One standout is Building Confidence and Joy Through Music, a blog by our primary trainee Jess Dove, who’s been leading a choir at @firbeckacademy and helping children find their voice in the most joyful way.

We’re incredibly proud of our partnership schools and mentors, who share this commitment wholeheartedly. Their dedication ensures our trainees feel supported, challenged, and inspired every step of the way.

Our @TorchSCITT trainees have made an incredible start to their teacher training journey! As part of their first placements, they threw themselves into enrichment activities, going above and beyond to engage and inspire students beyond the classroom.
From leading lunchtime clubs to supporting after-school projects, our trainees have shown creativity, enthusiasm, and a genuine passion for making learning exciting and accessible for all. Their dedication to both teaching and the wider school community is already making a real difference.
We couldn’t be prouder of the energy, commitment, and positivity they bring every day — the future of teaching is in great hands! 👏🎨📚

✨ We’re at NUSA today for our @torchscitt Trainee SEND Day! ✨
Our trainees are currently diving into key strategies for supporting learners with SEND, exploring practical approaches and real classroom examples to strengthen their inclusive practice.

They’ve had the fantastic opportunity to meet Head Teacher Carl Elder , who shared insights into the school and its community.

Teaching today’s sessions are two brilliant SENCOs — Rachel Brentley from @toothillschool and Tom Voice from @thegaribaldischool — delivering invaluable training and real-world expertise. A massive thanks 🙏

Such a rich, inspiring day of learning! 💛📚

Primary have had an away day in Peterborough spending the morning focussing on phonics, spelling and reading as part of their ITAP. The afternoon was spent exploring forest school and how this brings enrichment, awe and wonder into the primary curriculum. @TorchSCITT @nova_people
