An event will be held in Oban next week to enable graduates in Argyll and Bute to find out more about becoming fully qualified secondary school teachers without the need to move away from the area.
Argyll and Bute Council has been working in partnership with the Universities of Dundee and the Highlands and Islands to agree a programme, recently approved by the General Teaching Council of Scotland, which will see student teachers based in local schools for 18 months.
An information evening will take place at the Corran Halls, Oban, on Thursday August 23 from 5-7pm, and can be attended on a drop-in basis for those who are not able to make it for 5pm.
