Looking to inspire the next generation? Join our teacher training programme and take the first step toward a rewarding career in education! In partnership with Inspiring Future Teachers, the Kite Teacher Training Hub offer hands-on experience, expert mentorship, and a supportive learning environment to help you grow as an educator.

As part of Inspiring Future Teachers, our Kite Teacher Training hub will offer all the benefits of being part of a large national programme whilst at the same time providing locally-delivered, school-based training in infant and primary academies. We are able to offer placements across EYFS, including nurseries, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. Our goal is to equip all trainee teachers with the training, experience and support necessary to be successful and thrive, not just in their training year, but throughout their career.

The Kite Teacher Training Hub works closely with The Kite Academy Trust and The Mother Teresa Catholic Academy Trust.

The Kite Academy Trust

The Kite Academy Trust is a highly collaborative and forward-thinking family of local infant and primary academies in Surrey and Hampshire who enable all children to achieve more than they ever believed possible. Across all of our academies, we have vast range experience in leading Initial Teacher Training, delivering high-quality continuous professional development, and designing and successfully implementing an ambitious, inclusive curriculum that is accessible for all pupils.

At The Kite Academy Trust, we know that staff well-being is crucial. Teachers across the Trust feel supported and empowered to deliver a high-quality curriculum to all children; this is exemplified in recent Ofsted reports at our academies.

“Staff speak highly of leaders, governors and trustees. Teachers enjoy impressive training opportunities. They work with schools across the Trust to share expertise and develop their skills. This helps their workload and well-being.” (November 2023)

“Teachers benefit from excellent professional development. Collaborative planning across the trust is driving curriculum improvements. Staff are proud, happy and well-supported.” (March, 2024)

The Mother Teresa Catholic Academy Trust

The Mother Teresa Catholic Academy Trust is a partnership of Catholic primary schools in the North of Hampshire and Surrey borders who work closely in partnership with parents.

The aim of our schools is that all children will achieve their very best in all that they do: academically, spiritually and socially.  We provide a high standard of education in all areas, giving the maximum opportunity for ALL to reach their potential. We believe in vibrant settings that are caring, promoting happy children and happy schools. Together we value each other’s strengths, collaborating and working hard.

Come and see for yourself the culture and ethos that we promote across our schools to give the very best life chances to the children we serve.
