Wellbeing

The EAST SCITT Partnership takes the wellbeing of its trainee teachers very seriously.

We work in partnership with the Occupational Health and Wellbeing Service to carry our pre-employment checks for all trainees. 

Once you have been accepted onto a programme, there are a number of options available for any trainee who feels they need support:

  • Your SCITT tutor and Subject/Phase Lead:  If you have any concerns, you can always approach either your assigned SCITT tutor or Subject / Phase Lead for advice and support.
  • Central Team (Director of SCITT, Primary & Secondary Programme Leads and SCITT Coordinator):  We operate an open-door policy within the EAST SCITT Partnership. If you need to speak to Kerensa Carrick (Director of SCITT), Helen Millson (Primary Programme Lead), Lucy Cornell (Secondary Programme Lead) or Kim Rogers (SCITT Coordinator) about something that concerns you, please do.
  • Your School Mentor: You will have regular meetings with your school mentor, this is often an ideal opportunity to discuss any worries you may have.
  • Your Professional Tutor in School: The placement school’s Professional Tutor/Headteacher is a further contact within your school, who will be able to assist, and usually through experience has the full understanding of any concerns you may have, and solutions to support you in your training journey.
