Wigan HUB
Initial Teacher Training
Our Wigan hub offers high quality school-led teacher training within Wigan schools across the 5-11 and 11-16 years phases.
The partnership believe strongly in the value of welcoming Trainee Teachers and Early Career Teachers into the Wigan / North-West education community, so much so that we run our own regional hub as part of Kingsbridge Teacher Training.
Our aim is to support trainee teacher development, in line with the Initial Teacher Training Early Career Framework (ITTECF), drawing on the best available evidence, to improve education outcomes and to make a bigger difference for the education of all our children and support new teachers at the start of their careers.
Our approach combines in-school experience, centre-based training and on-line tuition. We work with and equip trainees with the skills to work in an array of schools, including those in challenging circumstances. These experiences will ensure that our trainees can teach high quality lessons and positively engage with pupils through their academic work as well as their pastoral experiences.
