Teaching Schools

Teaching schools are good or outstanding schools that play an important role in a school-led system, working with others to provide high-quality training and support for school improvement in their local area. Launched in 2011, there are now more than 800 teaching schools across the country and their role includes:

• co-ordinating and delivering high-quality, school-based initial teacher training (ITT)
• spreading excellent practice by supporting other schools, particularly those that need it the most
• providing professional and leadership development for teachers and leaders across their network

To become a teaching school, a school must be judged at least good in their most recent Ofsted inspection and have a proven track record of delivering ITT and supporting other schools.
