How it works
National Mathematics and Physics SCITT’s Newcastle Hub is led by the Royal Grammar School (RGS) Newcastle which is a leading day school for boys and girls aged 7 – 18 years. The school was founded in 1525 and received its Royal Charter from Queen Elizabeth I.
Trainees are based here for one day each week for training. The RGS has great facilities and a highly experienced and enthusiastic team that will ensure trainees receive the best possible teacher training experience. It is the perfect base to get together with other trainees in Mathematics or Physics to share ideas and experiences and learn from the talented teacher training team.
Full-time trainees will spend the other four days in the week at one of our growing network of fantastic placement schools, where they will build their experience and learn from some great teaching mentors, so they can enjoy a flying start to their teaching careers.

Subject specific teacher training for Mathematics and Physics
Our courses are led by expert teachers in Maths or Physics so you will cover the subject you want to teach rather than a generalist syllabus.

“Leaders have designed a well structured, coherent and ambitious ITE curriculum … Trainees value how well subject leaders and mentors within their regional hub know them as individuals.”
