Make a difference where it matters most with Ark Teacher Training
Ark Teacher Training gives the best graduates the chance to transform lives through education. We want to give every young person access to a great education through running great schools – and training great teachers.
We work in schools located in economically disadvantaged areas, or those with a history of academic underachievement, which means you can make a real difference where it matters most. Ark Teacher Training was rated outstanding in all areas by Ofsted in January 2017.
