Penistone Grammar School

Initial Teacher Training (ITT) Placements at Penistone Grammar School

​

We work in partnership with a range of universities and accredited providers to offer placements for Initial Teacher Trainees (ITTs) following the PGCE route. These include, but are not limited to:

• University of Sheffield

• Sheffield Hallam University

• Sheffield Teacher Training Alliance

At Penistone Grammar School, we are proud to offer a highly supportive and research-informed training environment. Our ITTs benefit from:

• A team of expertly trained mentors who provide weekly one-to-one mentoring sessions

• A programme of enhanced professional development that complements university-based learning

• A strong foundation in educational research and cognitive science

Throughout the ITT experience, we strive to embody our school’s core values - whether that’s supporting one another through the challenges of training, aiming high in our expectations, or taking pride in being part of the Penistone community.
