We are proud to be a Consortium School for the North Tyneside Early Years School Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT) Programme.

This ‘Outstanding’ (Ofsted 2016) course combines extensive, high-quality classroom experience with expert guidance.

At Collingwood Primary School we welcome trainees in Foundation Stage, Key Stage One and Key Stage Two for Initial, Intermediate and Final Placements.

As a consortium school we are also part of the SCITT Management Team.

Collingwood Primary school has been involved with the North Tyneside SCITT for many years including recruitment, placement and ongoing specialist CPD. We relish working with enthusiastic students and have moved to appoint students from the SCITT as teachers in school. Collingwood prides itself on dedicated and determined staff who want to make a difference and want to support those training for the profession to be excellent practitioners.  We are a creative team with current, up to date knowledge within a demanding and fully inclusive environment.
