When you hear the word apprenticeship, what comes to mind?
Vocational training routes for school-leavers would probably be high on the list, but that would overlook the revolution that has happened in apprenticeship provision for the school workforce in recent years.

Teacher apprenticeships will help fulfil that demand – offering an attractive pathway to QTS for TAs and other support staff whilst widening the pool of trainee teachers by removing the financial constraints of ITT.
