Throughout the course, trainees are fully supported by the Lead Tutor for Design & Technology, a Link Tutor from Leeds SCITT and subject specialist mentors who are dedicated to training the very best teachers. The Lead Tutor has been the subject leader at Titus Salt School and has recently taken on a whole school STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) role to highlight the importance of technology across the whole spectrum of education.
