Initial Teacher Training
Great teachers change lives. They bring subjects to life, inspire young minds, and help shape futures. We’re here to support the next generation of amazing D&T teachers.
Supporting Trainee Teachers
Whether you’re training to teach design and technology in secondary schools or building confidence to deliver D&T in primary settings, we’re here to help.
Backing Providers
We also work closely with teacher training providers. Whether you’re university-led or school-led, we offer subject-specific support to help you train the next wave of D&T teachers.
Championing the Profession
We don’t just support teachers, we speak up for them.
Our lobbying has helped secure and increase bursaries for D&T trainees, making the profession more accessible. We also contribute to national discussions, sharing evidence and recommendations on teacher recruitment, training and retention with government bodies.
