Train to teach with our ITT Primary or Secondary programme to become a qualified teacher with a PGCE, QTS and 60 Masters credits! Our programmes are exciting, school-based training routes for recent graduates and career changers. You learn ‘on the job’ with school placements, excellent training and lots of support.
We are an associate college of the The National Institute of Teaching. We work alongside over 57 partner schools, our MAT schools, MAT external initiatives, Calderdale and Kirklees Teaching School Hub and Yorkshire Rose Teaching Partnership. Together we are able to offer expertise and experience from colleagues and schools across the full age spectrum from outstanding settings. More information about our partnership organisations are below.
Our programme takes one year to complete (with part time options also available) and on average we have a 98% employment rate. You will be in school, teaching from the start, giving you the practical experience to feel confident in a classroom from the day you graduate as an ECT (Early Career Teacher.)
Within our course, your time will be divided between the TIE Hub and your placement schools. You will receive constant support from our primary and secondary leads, a school based professional mentor and a placement school mentor. We understand that it’s a big decision to become a teacher and so we want to ensure our trainees feel the support from our entire team at all times.
With a close-knit Institute of more than 57 primary and secondary schools across Calderdale and West Yorkshire and in collaboration with the The National Institute of Teaching, TIE has the expertise, resources and skilled support to put you ahead of the rest as you begin your teaching career.

We also offer free transport on a Thursday from Halifax Train Station to our theory venue.
