Leicestershire and Rutland Teaching School Hub

Big smiles, big stories, big gratitude! Our team is shouting out the teachers who inspired them 💛
Tap to watch the joy.

Happy Thank a Teacher Day.
Today we want to recognise the teachers who show up every single day with patience, kindness, and a genuine belief in their students’ potential. The ones who make learning feel possible, who notice the small things, and who quietly change lives in ways that stay with us for years.

We’re grateful for the encouragement, the understanding, the guidance, and the moments of support that often mattered more than you realised. Your work shapes futures, builds confidence, and creates opportunities that last far beyond the classroom.

You make a difference — a real one — and it’s appreciated more than words can say.

🌟 Last Day of Term! 🌟
That’s a wrap on another fantastic term! 🎉 A huge well done to everyone for all your hard work, dedication, and achievements – you’ve truly earned a well-deserved break.
We hope you have a lovely, relaxing, and fun-filled time off! ☀️✨
If you need anything at all over the break, our Team will still be here and happy to help with any queries.
Enjoy every moment – see you next term! 💙

Thinking about a career in teaching? 💛
One of the things our trainees value most is the people — the supportive relationships, the friendly environment, and the feeling of being part of a team that genuinely cares.
Holly, now a primary teacher, shared how training with Leicestershire & Rutland ITT helped her build real connections and become part of an extremely friendly, professional and reliable community. 👇✨
If you’re looking for a teacher training programme where you’re supported from day one, we’d love to help you start your journey.

On May the 4th, a reminder that teachers are basically Jedi: calm under pressure, masters of patience, and capable of sensing chaos before it happens. Unleash your inner Jedi & Train to Teach

May the 4th be with teachers… especially the ones trying to explain fractions while someone in the back is making lightsaber noises

🌼 Wishing you a bright and joyful Easter! 🌼
From all of us at Leicestershire & Rutland Teaching School Hub and Initial Teacher Training, we hope your day is filled with peace, colour, and moments of renewal.
Whether you’re enjoying a well-earned break, time with loved ones, or simply a quiet moment to recharge — we’re wishing you a wonderful Easter weekend. 🐣🌷
Happy Easter!

✨ Good Friday ✨
Today, we pause in reflection and remembrance.
Good Friday calls us to honour a moment of profound sacrifice, love, and hope — a reminder of grace that reaches us all.

To all Christians and all who are observing today,
we wish you a blessed and meaningful Good Friday.
May grace fill your heart, peace rest upon your home, and renewal surround you today and always. ✝️✨

💙 World Autism Awareness Day 💙
It’s okay to be different.
Today, we’re proud to stand with autistic individuals, their families, and everyone who works to create more inclusive, understanding communities.
At Leicestershire & Rutland Teaching School Hub and Initial Teacher Training, we believe that every person brings unique strengths, ideas, and perspectives — and our schools are richer because of it.
Awareness matters, but acceptance and genuine inclusion are what help people thrive.
Let’s continue to learn, listen, and celebrate the diversity that makes our communities stronger. 🧩💛

🌟 We’re proud to be supporting this amazing event! 🌟
