Applicants get to decide the school and area they want to learn and work from within the vibrant West London communities and four boroughs. See where you could train to teach. One Secondary Trainee in Ealing said, "Proximity is important for me; being able to work nearby facilitates my work-life balance [and] for those who aren’t local, West London is also a nice place to live.” 

Train at the top-performing academy Trust (MAT) in the country.    

Teach West London offers aspiring teachers a unique opportunity to train at the top-performing academy Trust one day per week and then put learning into practice at a placement school for the remaining four days, where they'll learn from expert practitioners and make an immediate impact on the school community.  

Dharmini Shah, Head of ITT at Teach West London shares, "It is heart-warming to see that there are so many people who are interested in becoming teachers.
