Teacher Training

Nurturing Potential, Empowering Success

At Tenacitas Trust, we believe that exceptional teachers are the cornerstone of every great school. Sitting within our first strategic ambition of nurturing potential and becoming an employer of choice, our teacher training programme is fully integrated into our People Strategy and our People Pledges. We understand that a teacher training year is tough and demanding, but as a member of our Trust family, your wellbeing will always be a key priority.

With over 30 years of experience in developing the leaders of tomorrow, our schools provide a dynamic and supportive environment for teacher training. Together with NESTT (Norfolk, Essex, Suffolk Teacher Training), our accredited body, we offer a personalised, school-centred programme designed to empower trainees to achieve their full potential.

Our philosophy is simple: ‘Train and Retain.’

We are committed to not only equipping you with the tools to excel but also investing in your future as a valued member of our Trust.

R. Thomas, Principal, Bournemouth Park Academy

"Completing my teacher training at The Eastwood Academy was a thoroughly enriching opportunity. I gained the skills to thrive as a confident and effective teacher while also being inspired to embody qualities such as kindness, resilience, and empathy. From day one, I was encouraged to immerse myself in the life of the school—facilitating clubs, leading workshops, and supporting school trips. The experienced staff mentored and encouraged me to enhance my skill set and embrace new challenges. The Eastwood Academy is a vibrant, inspiring place, and I feel privileged to have trained here."L. Malliff, former trainee
