Greenholm has an excellent reputation for high-quality teacher training within a friendly and supportive environment. 100% of our trainees have employment straight after training either in our school or other local schools. We pride ourselves on our high levels of teacher retention within the school and within the profession and believe the training we offer supports teachers in developing all the skills needed to be outstanding practitioners.  This is an excellent opportunity to acquire practical teaching experience under the guidance of highly skilled and dedicated professionals. The program offers tailor-made opportunities to develop teaching skills within a wide range of settings. The career development for all staff at Greenholm is recognized with the Investors in People Award which we have held for fifteen years and were the first school in Birmingham to be accredited. We are offering a one-year training placement starting in September 2019 through the Schools Direct program in collaboration with Birmingham City University, successful completion leads to qualified teacher status. As a trainee of the program, you would be based for the majority of the year in our school and be assigned a mentor who will support you in developing your skills and knowledge to become an outstanding trainee. In addition to in-school development, you will attend the center and partner school-based training one or two days a week to build upon your school experience.
