Embark on your career in teaching with Lionheart Teach.
Lionheart Teach is a Leicestershire School Direct Initial Teacher Training programme run by Lionheart Educational Trust.
Through this programme we develop excellent teachers to work within our schools and provide students with teaching that secures academic excellence and holistic development. The school direct partnership works with local universities, alongside offering placements in Lionheart schools, to train teachers at Primary and Secondary level.
In 2024, 100% of our trainees successfully qualified, with 55% securing a teaching role within one of our Trust schools.
We also offer...
School Experience
An essential part of preparing to apply for teacher training is gaining voluntary or paid experience in schools, working with pupils in the age range you wish to train to teach.
Why not take part in our School Experience programme and experience the classroom first- hand, and help strengthen your application for teacher training.
Summer Internship
Each summer, as part of our Lionheart Teach Internship programme, we offer 20 paid summer internships to enthusiastic undergraduates across all years of study who are interested in pursuing a career in teaching.
Over the course of three weeks, students will be immersed in the world of secondary education. Through hands-on experiences and guided mentorship, they gain insights that extend beyond the classroom, preparing them for a fulfilling career ahead.
