On Monday 23rd September, Springwest welcomed 55 trainee teachers from Teach First, for a week's training whilst taking the first steps of their teaching careers. During this week trainees were able to observe great lessons and teach in a range of departments as they experienced our culture of kindness with Fika, free breakfast and gratitude cards and benefited from specific CPD to improve their teaching practice. 

"The staff were incredibly welcoming and kind! I think it's a testament to Springwest!"

"There was such a welcoming atmosphere and the attitude of the teachers has been so positive and supportive." 

"I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the entire staff at Springwest Academy for their incredible support throughout our School Centered Learning experience. From day one, the warmth and encouragement we received made a significant impact on our journey."

"Everyone at Springwest was welcoming and offered some incredible advice. Despite this week being a challenge, the support we received from mentors and the constant positivity from all staff made all the difference in making this an amazing experience to remember."

An excellent experience - a big thank you to everyone involved and we wish the trainees the best in their future schools.
