About United Learning

Swindon Academy is part of United Learning, a national group of schools working to bring out the best in everyone.  At United Learning we’re an ambitious and growing group of state and independent schools. Swindon Academy offers the opportunity to train in either the Primary or Secondary Phase.  

Training While You Teach

Swindon Academy offers a supportive, welcoming environment in which to complete your training. As well as a dedicated subject and professional mentor, we also benefit from bespoke weekly CPD from expert teachers and an excellent programme of in-house whole school CPD to enhance your training. Many of our current staff have come through our teaching training programme.  We also provide centralised planning banks from which to plan your lessons, allowing you to focus on quality of delivery. Get in touch to arrange an informal visit, and to discuss the programme.

United Teaching is the initial teacher training programme, run by United Learning that offers the opportunity for you to train to be a teacher.  Allowing you to teach from day one enables you to get the teaching qualifications you need without going back to university and without delaying the start of your career.  You can train for a PGCE as well, earning 60 Masters-level credits along the way.
