Who we are
Learners First is a successful school-led partnership based in South Yorkshire.

These include initial teacher training (ITT) for new entrants into the profession, specialist qualifications for teachers, nationally accredited programmes for Headteachers and Trust Chief Executive Officers as well as opportunities for school support staff and school/ Trust Governing Board Members. Over 1,000 members of the school workforce access Learners First courses each year and through these professional learning networks we aim to support and add value to the individual endeavours of schools, academies and multi academy trusts.
