The Lead Partner Model offers Primary and Secondary PGCE courses through a partnership of local schools or a training hub such as Leeds SCITT and Leeds Trinity University.
This is ideal for any graduate who wishes to complete their teacher training within a school environment.
It allows you to experience first-hand what pupils find difficult in your subject and you'll work directly with your lead subject tutor to meet these challenges.
You'll be based in a school from day one and your training will be very hands-on.
The Lead Partner Model also offers Primary and Secondary PGCE courses, and Undergraduate teacher training courses through Bradford College and the Margaret McMillan School of Education.
