School Experience  

We believe that having some school experience is highly beneficial if you are considering training to be a teacher as it allows you to see the nature of the role and ensure that it is right for you before you apply or undertake your training. 

• To support potential applicants and gain this invaluable experience, GLF Teacher Training offers one-day School Experience visits to a selection of schools within our partnership. These experience days are only open to eligible candidates to start teacher training programmes in September 2026. 
• Often those keen to train like to pre- visit the school they are applying to, so they are familiar with it aims and values. 
• To register for more information and to find out if you are eligible, please complete our registration form HERE. 
• Our School Experience programme in any of our GLF schools can be found by visiting the Department for Education’s School Experience site Get school experience - GOV.UK or by contacting us info@glftt.org
