Other Local Teacher Training Options

Within the Generate Teaching Hub’s area of Halton, Warrington and Wigan, several other local providers of Initial Teacher Training operate as well as our School Based Teacher Training programme. 

As a Teaching School Hub our role is to support the collaboration between local providers of teacher development. One way we do this is through a local teacher training provider peer network; find out more here.
