PCP SCITT Reviews
Ellie Westhead 24/25 Teacher Apprentice
Everyone one at PCP are extremely friendly & supportive, I have looked forward to my Friday sessions every week. The amazing teachers that we have come in to teach our sessions are invaluable, they have taught me so much and made me much more confident in every subject. I could not have completed the year without Vhairi, Angela and Jessica though as their smiles and support every Friday have helped me continue to persevere the year. I have had an amazing year, I have met some amazing people and feel ready to teach my own class thanks to all the support! I will miss everyone at PCP.

My time with PCP has been a truly wonderful experience. The support I had during my training was always there when I needed it – kind, reassuring, and really focused on helping me improve and grow. The team was always approachable and provided clear, practical guidance that made a real difference. Thanks to PCP, I now feel confident and well-prepared as I begin my teaching journey. Iam so grateful to have trained with such a dedicated and inspiring team.

Christina Harman – 22/23 Teacher Apprentice
The love of teaching has come as a second career for me. It was a big decision to try a new direction by working in a school. But I was so glad that I did because I loved the job, the school and I loved working with the children. I then decided to carry out my teaching apprenticeship because I wanted to have an impact on the children and be a part of their learning.
I was bought up as a Catholic , attended Catholic school and my children attend a Catholic school. Therefore, I wanted to experience the same values and learning from the teaching for my apprenticeship. I found Primary Catholic Partnership and was overwhelmed by their extensive programme. The programme also covered a Religious Education section that would cover expectations for teaching RE. Aswell as, it offered great support and a tight community of students all working towards the same goal.
Now that I’m here and doing the course I couldn’t be happier. The centre has good values thread through every part of it. It is challenging and inspiring. It has lived up to expectations and has already started me on my journey to be a teacher.

“It has been an incredible experience training with you. I couldn’t ask for a better teacher training experience, a better bunch of people or better mentors. A year I will remember forever. Thankyou so much!”
23/24 Trainees told us the best thing about their training year:
“Meeting like-minded people and deepening my subject Knowledge”
“The expert tutors”
“The PCP-SCITT staff were amazing. They were so helpful and eased me into the preparation and management of my training. They were always available if you were needing some advice and very supportive…”
