Welcome to the Southend Teacher Training Partnership

and the Southend GTP (Graduate Teacher Programme)

For Trainees already on our Programmes, see updates at the bottom of this page and on "Documents" Page

Developing inspirational teachers today for every child tomorrow

The Graduate Teacher Programme (GTP) is a training scheme run by Southend Teacher Training Partnership Limited. The Partnership is a consortium of schools, working with South East Essex College and the Local Authority, drawing upon many years of experience of training Primary and Secondary teachers. We have established a good track record with more than 400 colleagues entering the profession through GTP since 2003. Last year alone, well over half the newly qualified entrants to teaching in Southend schools came through our programme.

So what’s in it for you?

You can earn a salary as you train. Salary range starts at £14,000 but may be negotiable depending on your previous experience. A training grant is also available. You can live at home and work locally - no need to travel long distances for training and teaching practice. You will be based in a local school where you can learn from experienced practitioners and skilled professionals. We can offer a flexible route through the programme and we take account of your existing skills and previous experience. You will receive support from a Mentor who will monitor your progress and ensure that your Training Plan is right for you.

Your future could start here...
