Where are we?

The taught programme will be delivered mainly at our Primary ITT Hub at Monkhouse Primary School, Wallington Avenue, North Shields, North Tyneside. The school is accessible via bus and Cullercoats Metro is within walking distance.

Many of the consultants who work for North Tyneside Council's Early Years and Primary School service delivery training in schools also lecture on the course, which means trainees receive the most up-to-date research and training that is currently being delivered in schools. These consultants along with the Programme Management Team are centre based, so are always on hand to offer support and guidance to trainees when needed.

Facilities

The training hub includes a training room for trainees sole use, free Wi-Fi, free parking and a breakout / relaxation area.

North Tyneside SCITT trainees have access to Northumbria University's Coach Lane Campus facilities nearby. Coach Lane Campus is six miles from the training hub and has a large library offering an online research facility and other resources.
