Welcome to Gloucestershire Initial Teacher Education Partnership

GITEP is a highly successful partnership between the Gloucestershire Association of Secondary Headteachers and the University of Gloucestershire. GITEP's aim is to recruit and train high calibre teachers who have the ability to inspire and influence the lives of young people of all abilities, ensuring the best outcomes for the pupils of our 50 partnership schools. As a truly school led programme GITEP is ideally placed to provide the new School Direct routes into teaching, offering more places in a wider range of subjects than any other school led provider in the country.

Trainees choosing the School Direct (fee) route are also able to undertake a PGCE accredited by the University of Gloucestershire.

Whichever route you chose you will spend most of your time in school, learning from teaching colleagues who are expert practitioners, and by participating alongside your peers in weekly subject pathway sessions, led by a school based Subject Leader.

In addition to this time spent in school, Professional Preparation weeks bring you together with the whole GITEP cohort for activities designed to help you meet the Teachers' Standards.

A high proportion of our trainees go on to gain employment within our partnership schools and subsequently continue to be supported throughout their induction year and beyond through the professional development arm of Gloucestershire Association of Secondary Headteachers.
