George Abbot SchoolAccredited Provider

& PartnersGraduate Teacher Programme 2009



“the good days are pure gold. The days I have had where the lessons have gone brilliantly, where the pupils have genuinely loved what you have worked so hard to create, where pupils leave the lesson thanking you because they have learnt something (honestly it has happened ) and asking if you’ll be teaching them from now onwards are just priceless.”



“I feel I create a positive environment within my classroom and believe in positive behavioural management methods with genuine praise to encourage and motivate. Those classes that don’t run so smoothly, that sometimes take every ounce of your patience, creativity and persistence to get through can be rewarding in different ways”.



“Any concerns or reservations I had about undertaking this course quickly dissipated once I started, thanks to the support, guidance, patience and professionalism of the staff at George Abbott. Thank You”.

“I have thoroughly enjoyed the graduate teacher programme. A great route into teaching and one in which I would recommend”.



“Administration and documentation is very thorough! Handbook and paperwork is outstanding and the organisation of the programme from application through to Graduation has been superb considering you all have teaching roles too!

Good team of caring a supportive people with lots of different skills and specialisms to turn to for advice.”



“Support has been spot on, every phone call or e mail has always been promptly answered. Never any fuss or drama, just efficiency and friendliness. Thank you!”

“It has been very hard work, especially with family commitments but also incredibly rewarding and I do feel that I have learnt so much and come a very long way in a year. It all looked so easy when I first observed in September, and now I know it isn’t, but it is getting easier with experience!”



“I have found this year to be really hard work and very challenging at times but the rewards and feelings of achievement have far outweighed these.”

“Thank you to all of the accredited provider team for helping me through this year!”



“I love teaching and it was the best decision I ever made. The GTP programme is a brilliant spring board – all new teachers should be trained this way”.

“I have met some brilliant people along the way and I now can’t imagine doing any other job!”



“it has been a year with many good memories and thanks to the team at George Abbot it has been incredibly fulfilling.

I have had nothing but fantastic support from all involved. The training provided has been nothing but exceptional and has undoubtedly helped me move towards gaining QTS and I have much gratitude for making my change of career go as smoothly as possible and as enjoyable as possible”.



“I have no doubt that this course is ‘outstanding’ and have no doubt that whoever is on the course next year should feel very proud to be on such a course with such professional and dedicated people around them.”



“Thank you for having given me the opportunity to do the GTP route through this provider”.

“I met an excellent group of people to work alongside with in my cohort and the provider”.



“I have really enjoyed the course, I think the course requires people who are dedicated and are willing to work hard throughout the year.

I feel it has prepared me for the coming years ahead.I would like to thank everyone involved on the GTP for the support they have given.

“I have made some brilliant friends along the way and have really enjoyed spending time with other trainees discussing ideas for lessons and just caching up.”



“I have found this year of training one of the hardest but also one of the most enjoyable and rewarding years.

I had a choice to either following the PGCE or GTP route into teaching and I am certain I have chosen the best route for my development.”



“The support and guidance I have been given by George Abbot cannot be faulted and it is an outstanding provider of training for the needs I require. Communication between the provider and myself has been concise and clear and the placement school has given me the direction and support throughout the year.

I would like to say a big thank you to the team and my mentor for their consistent support throughout the year.”



“I have loved the GTP programme, and I LOVE being a teacher. I look forward to, and am excited every day, and I cannot imagine any other profession that provides such variety, or that gives so much back.”



“It has been harder than I imagined, and I don’t remember ever being as utterly exhausted as I have been this year, but I can honestly say that the job, the students, the learning process, the experiences and the friends that I have made along the way have made tears the frustrations, the late nights and the shakes worth it!

There is no career like teaching; nothing more exciting, but nothing more exhausting, but the programme has enabled me and supported me to be the very best teacher I can be, and the team are wonderful.”



“Overall, this has been the best year of my life, I’ve loved every moment (despite the tears) and I would do it all over again in a second. I can’t wait to start my teaching career, and this programme has put me in the very best position for a long and exciting one! “



“I am very grateful for the opportunity to be part of the GTP programme it has been a very rapid learning curve and feel I have gained a great deal of experience from the majority of the training.”



“My main positive experience has been passing on my love for my subject area to young people.

“Experimenting with ideas I have picked up from observing lesson and at the AP meetings has added to my professional development and given me a great foundation of ideas in delivering my subject.”



“I have found it a rewarding and enriching

experience and will finish this course prepared for my NQT year.”



“The GTP has done a fantastic job to give me many opportunities and I will

100% recommend it to future potential trainees.”
