National Institute of Teaching

As a regional Associate College of this new organisation, we are excited to be offering a fully immersive school-centred programme – aspiring teachers will be in the classroom from the very start.

The National Institute of Teaching is an institution rooted in schools, dedicated to training teachers and school leaders at every stage of their careers. Our partnership ensures that our programmes are targeted to their participants, reflecting local contexts and drawing on local expertise – equipping our cohort of future teachers to inspire and develop children across the North and East of England.

Calderdale and Kirklees Teaching School Hub

Shelley College, which is part of SHARE MAT, has been appointed as the Teaching School Hub for Calderdale & Kirklees. In September 2021, the 87 Teaching School Hubs (TSH) replaced the previous network of around 750 teaching schools.

The job of the Hub is to promote high-quality professional development for teachers and leaders across the two local authorities. In particular, they have been asked by the Department for Education to support schools and colleges with the introduction of the Early Career Framework and the newly reformed National Professional Qualifications.

Yorkshire Rose Teaching Partnership

The YRTP is a very important initiative within The Batley Multi Academy Trust with a proven track record of offering outstanding Initial Teacher Training over a number of years. Alongside this, we are really pleased to be able to offer a further 15 schools through this partnership, expanding our reach and capacity in North Kirklees and Bradford. We are really excited to begin working closely with YRTP in expanding our offer for ITT across our region.
