Information For Schools

The School Direct way of training teachers puts schools at the heart of the process, enabling them to have more of a say in the way that teachers are trained.

Schools also select the accredited provider of teacher training they want to work with.

Schools that wish to engage in the School Direct Employed routes to Qualified Teacher Status, by partnering with the MC GM & & TT Consortium, can find out more information here.
