About Ark and Ark Teacher Training

Ark is a charity that aims to transform children's lives through education. In the UK, the strongest predictor of how a child will do at school continues to be what their parents do for a living - but why should this be the accepted status quo? By working in our network at one of our 39 schools, you will be directly making a positive impact on young people\'s lives through high-quality teaching that sensitively considers all children\'s backgrounds and needs; making educational equity a reality.

Ark Teacher Training (ATT) is a school-based programme offering the perfect mixture of theory and classroom practice to develop you into the best teacher you can be. Because we believe that every child, regardless of their background, deserves to have access to a great education, we work mainly in communities of lower income with a history of academic underachievement. We are very proud to have received our second \'outstanding\' rating from Ofsted in all categories! There are only a few ITTs in the UK that can say the same.

Special features of our programme

• Wellbeing is our top priority; we provide dedicated support and prioritise you personally so that you can enjoy a sustainable career in education.
• One of the highest investors in professional development of any schools group; we equip you with the tools you need to be the best you can be, at every stage of your career.
• We believe in the power of our people and the beauty of diversity; we value individuals\' unique qualities and expertise, which cultivates the growth of special talents to enrich our vibrant community.
• Our credibility comes from our connections with acclaimed, national and international educational research; we set goals to enhance our professional practice that are person-centred and evidence-based.
