Welcome to our final ATTI Teacher Training Bulletin!
As we approach the start of your programme, there’s lots of admin to be done in the background. We’ve put together a list of tasks you may have yet to complete to help you keep on track. As always, let us know if you have any questions or concerns. We can’t wait for you to start your teacher training journey with us!

Watch Our Guide to Steplab

You’ll be using the Steplab learning platform throughout your teacher training programme. To help you get to know your way around it, Ambition Institute have put together this helpful training video.

If you want more help getting to grips with Steplab, Ambition are running
live walkthrough training sessions on My Teacher TrainingSteplab and iHasco every Tuesday at 5pm up to the end of August. The link to access the session is here.

Outstanding Portal Tasks

You may have some tasks left to complete on your Ambition Institute My Teacher Training portal. Carefully check the list below, and if you’re yet to finish any of these tasks, please make sure to log in to your portal and complete them as soon as possible.

  • Upload any outstanding documents
  • Complete your references
  • Complete the pre-conference materials

Candidate handbooks are available via the portal to help guide you through these processes.

Complete Mandatory Training

If you’ve yet to complete your mandatory Safeguarding and PREVENT training modules on iHasco, make sure you do so by 15th August at the latest. Your login details should have come through from Ambition- contact them if you have any issues.

Bursary

If you have chosen to finance your ITT programme with a bursary (secondary only), you will have received an email from Ambition Institute regarding your payments. You will need to register with the Student Loans Company to receive your bursary, even if you are not applying for any student loans. Contact Ambition Institute if you have any further bursary questions.

Our Second Class of 2025 Event

We’re excited to be running another ITT online event on Tuesday 6th August at 16.00-16.45! This is a chance for all our 2024-25 trainees who couldn’t attend the last event, or who have since joined the programme, to get together, meet the team, and ask any questions you have about your upcoming course.
If you attended the previous event, you don’t need to attend this one, but you’re still very welcome to join us!

Reminder- ATTI Coffee Morning

Come along to one of our ATTI coffee morning sessions on Thursday 22 August at 10.30am and meet your new team! We’re running this casual social event at both our East and West hubs, so you can choose which location to join us. You’ll have the chance to meet your fellow trainees and the ATT Institute team face-to-face. There’ll be coffee, cake, and plenty of discussion. Get to know your peers and talk with us about what to expect from your upcoming programme.

Book Time to Check Your Essential Documents
