Welcome to
Wandle Learning Trust and Chesterton Primary School are delighted to announce that we have been designated by the Department for Education as the Teaching School Hub for Wandsworth, Merton, Richmond upon Thames and Kingston upon Thames.
The Hub will become the focal point for Teacher Development providing a “golden thread” of teacher professional development from ITT to Headship. We will work closely with our current partners and schools, and hope to build links with many more schools and teacher development partners across the region. We will play a core role in the provision of ITT, ECF, NPQ, CPD and Appropriate Body Services.
Wandle Teaching School Hub is an established provider of professional development through its Maths Hub and English Hub.
Our Schools Direct training programme provides trainee teachers with the opportunity to be based at a school and work alongside the class teacher right from the start of the year to the very end.
Our NPQ programmes supports the professional development of teachers and leaders. The specialist and leadership NPQs provide training and support for teachers and school leaders at all levels.
Our core induction programmes include high-quality development materials, underpinned by the ECF, which will support early career teachers to develop the essential knowledge and skills to set them up for a successful and fulfilling career in teaching.
From leadership training and coaching, through to training for teachers, subject leaders and support staff, the WTSH offer an exciting and highly regarded training programme which is shaped by school leaders and delivered by teachers, leaders and consultants working in our schools.
We have an experienced team who will play a key role in teacher induction. They ensure that ECTs receive their statutory entitlements, and check that the ECTs are receiving support throughout their programme. Our AB has a selection of programmes and prices. Click below to find out more information.
We offer CPD that is planned and delivered by teachers for teachers for the majority of courses. Where we need to, we also work with a highly experienced training team of consultants, who have been carefully selected for their passion to deliver excellence for all.
