Kingsbridge Education Improvement Partnership
School Centred Initial Teacher Training
Based in the Borough of Wigan, we have a proven track record of success in developing effective teachers in the North West of England. We work with 19 schools across the borough in both primary and secondary education as well as working with a wider range of additional schools through the apprenticeship route into teaching. We offer all trainees and apprentices the opportunity to gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and also to complete a Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) in their chosen specialism.
At Kingsbridge, we understand the importance of the relationships that you make with both pupils and colleagues. We therefore place you in a school from the first day of your training and you are welcomed into the school as a valued member of staff. You also have the opportunity to experience teaching in a range of settings through the careful selection of a second placement in an alternative partnership school. All placements are guaranteed and organized by the team at Kingsbridge.
Our training routes put the individual trainee right at the heart of the programme. We build the course around you, your needs, confidence and experience. We recognize that not all trainees will have the same level of experience and so carefully tailor your experience to meet your needs. This is done via the expertise of your mentor and the gradual increase in teaching responsibilities to fulfil the course requirements.
Equity, diversity and inclusion are a priority at Kingsbridge and as such, all our trainees are offered a wide variety of experiences to fully equip you to support children from a range of backgrounds and educational experiences. Kingsbridge is a place where you are not just a face in the crowd but part of a caring, committed community.
We develop highly effective teachers that have the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to make a difference. You could be one of them.
