TSA vision:

Our vision is to deliver an outstanding school-centred PGCE programme based in local schools. Trainees studying with us will be exposed to the highest quality teaching and learning strategies delivered by leading practitioners building on the latest educational research and national developments.

Catchment Area

Eligible enquirers are offered an initial 1 day visit. Depending on eligibility and the availability of the host school, they are then offered up to a further 9 days at a time to suit the host school and participant.

Unique selling point of your programme:

The Salop Teaching School Alliance is a Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin based partnership of successful and outstanding secondary schools working in collaboration with both local authorities.

Our unique combination of secondary schools and sixth form colleges across both local authorities will ensure any trainee will experience teaching in a variety of contexts and key stages, thus making them more appealing to future employers.

We offer a range of Continuing Professional Development courses. The Alliance ensures that this high quality provision is relevant to the needs of the local workforce.
