Train to be a teacher with us 

A good place to start for general information on becoming a teacher is the DfE Get into Teaching website. This offers good general information, from how to set up a school experience visits, to seeing what primary/secondary school life is like, to checking if you have the correct qualifications to apply for a teacher training course, to how to apply for a place on a teacher training course. 

If you are considering a career in teaching we would be delighted to hear from you. If you would like to get some more experience in a school we are able to support with opportunities to visit the school and to complete a short observation placement.

To arrange this please contact Mr Willder via Office@melbournvc.org for further details. 

At Melbourn Village College we are proud to be a partner school within the Cambridge Teaching Schools' Network - CTSN.

CTSN aims to recruit, train, and retain excellent candidates into teaching to meet the educational needs of the area. You will undertake most of your training within a school environment in one of our supportive and well-established school partners and taught be current teachers within our partnership schools.
