PLS is a dynamic partnership between two existing teaching school alliances (Sydney Russell Teaching School Alliance & East London Teaching School Alliance). For the primary route we work with our strategic partner St Edward’s Teaching School Alliance.
PLS is led by two Outstanding schools, Sydney Russell in Dagenham and St Angela’s Ursuline in Newham. Both schools have a long track record of outstanding teacher training and now, as a SCITT, are in the position to offer you top class training working with outstanding professionals in a vibrant teaching atmosphere. The perfect start to your career.
From the outset you will be working as part of the staff of the school. You will be seen by colleagues and students as a full member of staff and not a ‘trainee’ who has been placed by a university. This seemingly small point makes a huge difference to your standing in a school and will provide a much firmer platform from which you can develop your teaching skills. In addition you will be trained by practicing teachers who are also completely up to date with the latest in educational theory, research and development and cutting edge practice.
A school-centred course gives you the very best of both worlds: the theory, the practice, the professional development and extended placements with colleagues who really want to make you an outstanding teacher.
All PLS partners have shown a commitment to ‘growing their own’ and are now at a point where they would like to carry this process to the next level, developing the next generation of school leaders from teachers trained within their own schools.
