Celebrating 25 years of The National Association of School-Based Teacher Training

Initial Teacher Training (ITT) plays a crucial role in preparing future educators, ensuring they are equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to provide high-quality education to students.

Initial Teacher Training (ITT) in England has undergone significant transformations over the past 25 years, these changes have been driven by a combination of government policies, educational research, and the evolving needs of the education system.

Established in 2000 NASBTT has been prominent throughout the key events and policy changes that have shaped ITT in England over the past 25 years.
