The Assessment-Only route to QTS is a specialised assessment route, distinct from a traditional training course, for graduates employed on a teaching contract. This route is designed for those with a diverse and comprehensive range of experience in schools or other settings, allowing them to meet all the Teachers’ Standards without the need for further training.
Teachers produce a portfolio of evidence, are observed teaching, and take part in a viva. The cost of qualifying as a teacher through the Assessment only route to QTS is £2,800, payable before the first visit.Additional costs may apply if you are a teacher working abroad who requires an assessment team to travel to carry out an assessment in your home setting, and travel costs might apply if you work in a school a long distance away from the SCITT. We will, of course, try our best to minimise any such costs.More information here -> etpscitt.co.uk/our-courses-pgce-qts/assessment-only-essex-southend-thurrock/#traintoteach #teachinessex #qts #assessmentonly #qualifiedteacher #HLTA #teachingassistant #teachertraining

The multi-store model is an explanation of memory proposed by Atkinson and Shiffrin which assumes there are three unitary (separate) memory stores, and that information is transferred between these stores in a linear sequence.
