CENTURY's ITT courses include: Download a curriculum guide for an overview of subjects and topics. The Department for Education (DfE) requires a provider-led assessment of fundamental English and maths skills in order to award Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). CENTURY analyses each trainee's areas of development and provides them with a bespoke programme of teaching modules (nuggets) that will address their specific needs. The combination of CENTURY’s initial diagnostics, the supporting nuggets and the vast resource bank has really supported us in increasing the subject knowledge of our trainees. The big thing for us is the bespoke nature of the platform. Every trainee can follow their own journey, depending on what they have to teach in their school. The fact that it responds to the needs of individual trainees and their starting points makes it really helpful.
