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.
