TEACHER In this job you will be helping to give young children the best possible start in life. If you like spending time with young children, and want to work in education, a job as a primary school teacher could be perfect for you.
A primary school teacher needs to have enthusiasm for the subjects they teach. You’ll need to be able to relate to pupils and their parents. You’ll also need patience and a good sense of humour.
One of the main routes into primary school teaching is to do Initial Teacher Training and get Qualified Teacher Status. To do this you must have GCSEs in English, maths and a science subject. You will also need clearance by the Disclosure and Barring Service
The work
You would work with children aged between five and eleven in state and independent schools, and be responsible for their educational, social and emotional development while in your care.
You would teach subjects covered by the primary national curriculum at Key Stage 1 (ages 5 to 7) and Key Stage 2 (7 to 11) — subjects such as English, science, music and art. In some classes, you may have a teaching assistant to help you.
Depending on your qualifications and experience, you may work as a subject specialist teacher, where you would concentrate on a particular subject, for example maths or modern foreign languages. As well as teaching you would:
plan lessons and teaching materials mark and assess children's work manage class behaviour work with other professionals, such as education psychologists and social workers discuss children's progress and other relevant matters with parents and carers attend meetings and training organise outings, social activities and sports events.
As a primary teacher, you could also work with children under the age of five (Early Years Foundation Stage) in settings like a children’s centre or a reception class in a school

Information for young people From summer 2013, the Government has changed the law so that all young people in England will have to continue in education or training until their 18th birthday. If you started Year 11 in September 2012, you will need to continue in education or training until at least the end of the school year in which you turn 17. If you are in Year 10 or below, you will need to continue until at least your 18th birthday. This does not necessarily mean that you have to stay in school, and there are a number of options that you can choose: • Study full-time such as in a school, college or with a training provider; • Full-time work or volunteering combined with part-time education or training; • An Apprenticeship
You are of course free to take a summer job and then go onto to a full-time course from September. But, if you decide to continue in full-time work you will need to combine that with part-time study.

Seeking eight enthusiastic candidates with their eyes firmly set on a career in IT
Amicus ITS are offering exciting opportunities for bright, enthusiastic, customer focused candidates to join us for an IT Apprenticeship which will see you become fully qualified and experienced Service Desk Analysts. The apprenticeship features an initial three months of training which will be taught via a mixture of class based lessons, one-to-ones and shadowing. Our apprenticeship is taught in partnership with Totton College, and a representative from the college teaches in-house, meaning that unlike other apprenticeships you will not be required to attend lessons away from our office. From this training and whilst on the desk you will amass a total of 4 industry specialised qualifications: - BTEC Level 3, IT Practitioner - Windows 7 - Windows Server 2008 - CompTIA A+ After this three month training period you will then, through gradual introduction, become integrated with the current desk and the remainder will see you building up working experience on a vibrant and challenging desk. The work on the desk will include logging calls for clients, fixing problems first time (where possible), and escalating to internal support teams or third party suppliers as required.

WHAT IS AN APPRENTICESHIP? Apprenticeships are an excellent way of gaining qualifications and workplace experience. As an employee, you can earn as you learn and you gain practical skills from the workplace.
APPRENTICESHIPS
Do I have to pay anything?
Do I have to pay tax & national insurance?
Do I get paid?
Do I get holidays?
An Apprenticeship is a real job with training so you can earn while you learn and pick up recognised qualifications as you go. If you live in England, are over 16 and not in full time education you can apply. They take between one and four years to complete and cover 1,500 job roles in a wide range of industries, from things like engineering to financial advice, veterinary nursing to accountancy.
Yes, all employed apprentices will get a wage. The current 'apprentice National Minimum Wage' is currently £2.65 per hour*.
However, as skills develop, many employers tend to increase wages – in fact, research has found that apprentices earn an average of £200 net pay per week.
The apprentice 'National Minimum Wage' applies to all 16 to 18 year olds and to those aged 19 and over in the first year of their Apprenticeship. If you reach age 19 and have completed the first year of your Apprenticeship your employer must pay you at least the 'full National Minimum Wage' rate for those aged 18 to 20.
While you are on an Apprenticeship, your employer pays you a salary and supports you whilst you undertake your training. Most of the training is ‘on the job’ within the workplace however the rest can be provided by a local college or by a specialist learning provider or in some cases it could all be undertaken by your employer
Like most other employees, you will be given at least 20 days’ paid holiday per year as well as bank holidays.
