Are you a 3rd-year student finishing your final placement this Spring? Or an Early Career Teacher (ECT) ready to secure your first long-term post for September 2026?

At Tradewind Education, we specialise in bridging the gap between university and your first classroom. We are currently seeking the next generation of teaching talent for primary schools across Preston.

Boost Your CPD: Use your free access to 2,500+ National College courses during the summer to add specialist certificates (like SEND or Phonics) to your CV before your ECT induction begins.
