Thinking about a career in teaching? Train in a real school environment with Bohunt IFT

As an Inspiring Future Teachers (IFT) trainee, you could not be in better hands with Bohunt Education Trust (BET). 

Why choose BET?

We are a multi-academy trust (MAT) of non-fee paying schools, providing innovative, high-quality education for children aged four to 18. We work together with shared values and vision to ensure consistency and excellence for all our students. Our vision is that the highest expectations, an ethos of ‘enjoy, respect, achieve’, unparalleled opportunity and highly effective teaching combine to develop students who are ‘game-changers’.

Our trainee teachers become highly skilled, confident, enthusiastic, well-rounded teachers. We achieve this through high quality opportunities and experiences that show the realities of being a teacher, but also encourage you to take risks and explore who you are as an individual teacher. Our goal is that every trainee will be successful – not only in your training year, but in your long-term career.

IFT is an exciting route into initial teacher teaching (ITT), which allows schools to take the lead in recruiting and training new teachers. The programme is a one-year, Postgraduate route.
