      Why Teach?

      Teach the next generation of computer buffs with Leeds SCITT!

      Being ‘computer literate’ in the current job market is something that can’t be underestimated. Having an extensive and impressive knowledge of IT is something that sets children apart from their competitors in a modern world. It’s a subject that involves problem-solving and can, at times, be as creative as it is technical.

      So if you’ve decided you want to teach this increasingly important subject to the next set of computer buffs to finish school, you’ve come to the right place!

      Our lead tutor of Computer Science here at Leeds SCITT is one of only a few Master Teachers of the subject in the country. This means that those training for their PGCE in Computer Science with Leeds SCITT are getting some of the best training in the country, and putting them at the forefront of the discipline.
