"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step"

Lao Tzu


We understand that the provisional teacher certification road can be bumpy and unpredictable. Along the way you will have many questions and challenges. And you will need expert help to navigate successfully through. That's why we have created this programme, because we have been there too! 


There is so much to grasp when you start provisional teacher certification. And one of the common challenges we see teachers struggle with is understanding the teacher standards and how to reach these to gain full certification. And then there is getting to grips with what is required of you, what role your mentor should be taking, and how to gather and present evidence of your practice.

So much to learn and understand!!!

This online programme is for you if:

  • You are just beginning your provisional teacher certification journey.
  • You have already started your provisional teacher certification process, but could do with some support and more information from experienced and knowledgeable people.
“When I started my provisional teacher certification process, I didn't know where to begin. And sometimes I just needed help with a particular challenge, or someone to talk with about how they were approaching this stuff”
