7. What teachers say
"Every lecture - bringing me up to speed with current thought and interpretations which is essential - why have I not done this before?! To be challenged myself, to be a student once again."
Head of History
"Networking with fellow subject professionals is invigorating. I came away from the PTI course feeling encouraged, more focused, and with loads of new resources to share with my department/students."
James Instone, Head of Music, Avonbourne School, 2015
"I think that teaching English is increasingly pressured and alongside pedagogy, data and other admin tasks, curriculum and subject knowledge training has become less important. PTI has allowed me to appreciate my subject again, which I feel I have lost due to all the other pressures in teaching."
Abigail Booler, Garforth Academy, 2015
