Thurrock Primary Teaching School has 1 National Leaders of Education leading schools in the Alliance, together with Local Leaders of Education and Specialist Leaders of Education. Our Alliance works closely with our partner schools to raise standards through joint projects, in-school support and staff development. We offer school to school support through the Teaching School Programme, and, in addition, we offer bespoke support and CPD to a school, or groups of schools, in a range of areas, such as raising achievement at Key Stage 2, behaviour management, and outstanding practice in all subject areas. This is in the form of personalised training and/or follow-up support for individuals or groups. We work with a large number of trainee teachers each year in partnership with the Institute of Education (IOE) and 17 neighbouring primary schools.
