Partnerships with schools
The School of Education has extensive partnership links with over 600 primary, secondary and post-16 settings across the East Midlands through its teacher training courses. These relationships enable students to gain a wide experience of teaching in many different educational environments. Experiences vary from city centre to suburban and semi-rural settings, laying a sound foundation for future professional development.
The school and college-based training programme is very much a partnership between the placement provider and the University. Trained colleagues from within the placement settings work closely with tutors from the School of Education to support development, monitor progress and carry out assessment.
Our education related courses have links, not only with education centres, but also with public sector, private sector, retail and service industries. These offer work placements for students to gain valuable work experience, which enables theory to be put into practice.
