Assess fundamental skills in English and maths
How ITT organisations can use CENTURY
- Assess fundamental skills in English and maths: CENTURY’s initial diagnostics ensure trainees have the required levels of English and maths. Accompanying resources will enable trainees to address their specific needs.
- Develop subject knowledge: Trainees can upskill in key concepts using CENTURY’s resources for support. CENTURY’s videos and slideshows, followed by assessment questions, allow trainees to gain a secure understanding of a topic before teaching it. Resources available include English, maths and science content for primary and secondary, alongside Key Stage 4 courses for geography and PE.
- Time saving: Trainees can save valuable hours sourcing resources by using CENTURY’s high-quality videos and slides in their lesson planning. The assessment questions can support trainees in their sequencing of a lesson.
"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."
