School Direct

We welcome the opportunity to collaborate with schools in developing new and innovative training programmes to deliver School Direct teacher education.

We recognise that each school network will want to tailor a training programme that will meet the needs of their schools, their pupils, their teachers and their trainees.

Partnerships

We work in close partnership with school networks:

in marketing School Direct programmes to attract the best candidates
in developing robust recruitment and selection processes, designed to identify candidates who will become excellent teachers
in the design of a tailored training programme, handbooks and course documentation
in developing robust quality assurance processes
in ensuring that all stakeholders understand their roles and responsibilities
in evaluating the impact of the programme on trainees, pupils, school staff and university tutors.

We have a long and established history of delivering teacher training in the Midlands region.

We have successfully developed mutually beneficial relationships with a number of teaching organisations, demonstrated by our strong partnerships with over 1,000 schools, colleges and training organisations across the Midlands region.
