A Warm Welcome from the Head of SCITT

Thank you for visiting the Embrace SCITT website. I’m delighted that you’re considering us as your Initial Teacher Training provider.

At Embrace, we believe deeply in the transformative power of education and in the importance of preparing teachers who are skilled, reflective and values‑driven. Ofsted recognised that “this is a partnership that celebrates, recognises and advocates for difference and diversity”, with “an unwavering emphasis on inclusion woven through all aspects of the provision.”

We are proud to be a community built on collaboration, professionalism and a strong work ethic. Inspectors noted that “leaders have established a culture of professionalism and care in which trainees thrive,” and that trainees “feel known and valued as individuals.” This sense of care, belonging and high expectation underpins everything we do.

Our ambition is simple: to support you to become an excellent teacher who can make a meaningful difference to children’s lives. You will be supported by a partnership that places strong relationships, high‑quality training and inclusion at its heart, ensuring that you are well prepared for the realities of the teaching profession.

If you share our belief that great teaching changes lives, we would be proud to support you on your journey into the profession.
