You’ll be supported by an experienced former school leader who will coach and guide you throughout your NPQ. You will be considered for this additional support when you apply for your programme either via Teach First or Potentia TSH.

 

Small Schools NPQs

Are you a school with less than 150 pupils on roll? Then the NPQ small may be for you. The NPQ small has the same standing as the Standard NPQs but has been designed with small schools in mind.
