An introduction to Teach First in London

Since 2003, we’ve been improving the life chances and choices for children experiencing poverty. We train talented teachers and equip school leaders working in some of the poorest areas of the country – to give children with the fewest opportunities access to a great education.

We’re the largest teacher training provider in England, recruiting between 1400-1750 trainee teachers every year. Last year, over 550 individuals changed career with us. A further 250 had already graduated. These are individuals coming to us from other careers or already working in education.

You’ll learn about how our Training Programme works, where our partner schools are across the capital, and hear from a current Teach First trainee in the region. You'll also be able to get your questions answered by recruiters.

We know becoming a teacher is a big choice and there are plenty of options. Join our webinar to learn why Teach First and joining our 16,000 community could be the best route for you.

Please note we see a huge spike in applications at the beginning of the year - often resulting in the closure of some subjects. Come along to avoid disappointment. If you're unable to make the event but would like to learn more, please reach out to Catherine at cgriffiths@teachfirst.org.uk.
