Red Kite Teacher Training (51)

Welcome to Red Kite Teacher Training

We are an Ofsted Outstanding Provider of school-based teacher training in North and West Yorkshire. We work in partnership with schools across the region, as well as the University of Leeds, to train new teachers who are confident in the classroom and are sought after by future employers as accomplished practitioners.

In February 2024, Ofsted highlighted that “trainees experience high-quality training underpinned by well-chosen age and subject specific practice. They benefit from training that is intelligently aligned across the centre and placement schools. For example, mentors help trainees deepen their understanding of central training on early reading in their evolving classroom practice.”

Outstanding Teacher Training

Red Kite Teaching Training has received an ‘Outstanding’ rating for both primary and secondary provision.
A thorough assessment of the Red Kite Teacher Training provision was conducted between 5th of February. A team of three of Her Majesty’s Inspectors and four Ofsted Inspectors met with governors, leaders and members of the SCITT team and reviewed a wide sample of documentation and training programme material. They also visited 10 schools, five primary and five secondary, to observe and interview trainees and speak with school leaders, mentors and staff.

What our trainees have to say...

As someone who was very reserved and nervous to begin the course, I have loved the structure of it and the way teaching gradually increases.

2024-25 trainee

Thank you so much, Red Kite! I have been so impressed with the running of the course. It always felt as though there was someone to help me, and I never felt alone. Red Kite genuinely cares about you as a person and wants to support you however they can. I am so pleased I chose to do my teacher training with Red Kite!

2024-2025 trainee

I feel the course was planned out really well and the weekly training sessions allowed us to spend time with other trainees.
