With strong links with Canterbury Christ Church University, The Stour Academy Trust’s NQT induction process ensures that the appropriate guidance, support, training, expectations and observations are provided through a structured but flexible individualised programme.

The first year of teaching is a considerable significance in the professional development of a new teacher and this programme will enable you to form a secure foundation upon which a successful teaching career can be built.

The Trust’s programme for NQT’s was recently inspected and graded as outstanding. Inspectors said:

• the quality of CPD provided by the Trust is a strength.
• the NQTs feel very supported.
• Many opportunities to observe others both within school and across the trust.
• Great importance is placed on matching the mentor and NQT to ensure that personalities and experience complement each other.
• NQT support is outstanding

Some quotes from our current and past NQT’s:

‘the on-going support and training is continually helping to develop my knowledge/skills in specific areas’.

‘The Head teacher and my mentor are exceptionally helpful.’

‘The Stour Academy Trust has made my NQT experience less stressful by providing

experienced mentors and devising an NQT programme which will help me achieve my targets.’

‘Having the right support systems such as weekly NQT meetings with mentors was a massive help to make the transition into Primary teaching’

For experienced teachers, The Stour Academy Trust is able to offer excellent career progression and training to support those who wish to develop into senior leaders.

The Stour Academy Trust is able to ensure that NQTs have the very best opportunities to succeed during their induction year and beyond.  Join our collaborative team today.
