SCITT Year 2021 / 2022


What inspired you to become a teacher?

I grew up in a family in the education industry, my mum was a teacher so this meant me spending my spare time in a school helping out. I then went on to pursue my performing arts career whilst also completing my IDTA dance teaching certificate, this made me realise that I absolutely loved the teaching side of it. I then went on to gain some experience within the classroom and became a nursery nurse in a local nursery. After working there a year I decided to take the leap and do a teaching course. I am so glad I have taken this opportunity as it's allowed me to  find new and unique qualities of me that I have never found before.


Why did you choose Endeavour for your teacher training? 

I chose Endeavaour SCITT because the SCITT was a small and personal, after speaking to Roger I knew that he was very passionate about achieving the best for all of his students. This made me feel like I was already a part of his team and ready to start my training.


What was the best thing about the programme? 

The best thing about the programme for me was the two very contrasting placements that I was given, this allowed me to see what two very different teaching roles were like. Throughout the course the support was incredible any worries or concerns I always knew someone was there.


What impact has the SCITT had on your career as a teacher? 

Endeavour has given me the tools and confidence to apply for jobs and know that I can do it! I have taken away life long skills and memories that I will treasure forever!
