Universities Teach First plans to visit in
2011-12
The link between low family income and poor
educational attainment is stronger in the UK
than in almost any other developed country.
That's not right, it's not fair and it can't be
allowed to continue. Teach First's graduates
are doing something about it and having a
massive impact on young people's lives.
Teach First is a charity that provides the
training and support to enable high-calibre
graduates to make a real impact in addressing
one of the UK's most damaging social issues,
educational disadvantage. At the same time,
while they are transforming the lives of young
people in schools around the country, Teach
First helps graduates to dramatically enhance
their own career potential, in schools and
elsewhere, and become part of a movement
that is effecting profound change throughout
the UK.
Teach First offers an exceptional Leadership
Development Programme that focuses on
education, and which includes in its first
year a PGCE qualification. With high-quality
training, supportive coaching and ongoing
alumni opportunities, Teach First provides
a unique platform of skills and experience
to take forward into any future career.
That's why over 80 companies, government
agencies and public bodies back Teach First's
ability to effect change and to develop leaders
for the future.
Put simply, graduates who can engage,
manage and inspire a class of young people
can handle pretty well any situation in any
industry. Few other options offer the same
degree of genuine responsibility so early.
And rarely, if ever, will graduates have
the opportunity to make such a direct and
important impact.
Having already benefited from a quality
education, graduates can now transform
the futures of young people, and build a
foundation for an influential career.
