Teaching Packages

This page gives you more information about the two teaching packages that we offer: the Academies Package and the Early Years Package

Our teaching packages provide you with the security of guaranteed year on year teaching income along with a higher rate of payment. Most of our Year 1 and 2 teaching is delivered by practices on an Early Years Package, and an increasing proportion of our Year 3, 4 and 5 teaching is delivered by practices on an Academies Package.

  • Total payment to the practice of £10,584 in the first year
