Train to Teach With Us

Initial Teacher Training at Windsor AcademyTrust

As part of Windsor Academy Trust’s (WAT) partnership with the National Institute of Teaching (NIoT) as an Associate College, applications for our Initial Teacher Training programme are now open for our September 2025 intake.

Initial Teacher Training is a fully immersive school-centred programme, with school placements available in one of our 15 schools. Applicants will be able to choose their main placement school when applying and we will endeavour to do our best to place applicants in their first choice school. Our trainees are also mentored and have central training once a week.

All of our teacher training courses lead to QTS (Qualified Teacher Status), a PGCE (Post Graduate Certificate in Education) and 60 Master’s Level credits. Interested applicants can find out more via our Initial Teacher Training webpage and can apply via the DfE Apply website. You can find us using our provider code 2HE or search for NIoT at WAT.
