Who are we and what courses do we offer?

Since 1996 Wandsworth Primary Schools’ Consortium (WPSC) has been accredited by the Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA) to train highly motivated graduates to teach in primary schools via a school-centred initial teacher training (SCITT). From 2003 there has also been the opportunity for trainees to specialise as teachers of 3-7 year olds. The course provides trainees with the theoretical and practical experience needed to meet the standards for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and the award of a PGCE. For the last five years all who have qualified via Wandsworth SCITT have found work as teachers, a much higher percentage than the national average.

Please note that Wandsworth Primary Schools’ Consortium no longer has links with the Graduate Teacher Programme. If you are interested in learning more about this employment-based route into teaching you should contact the West London Partnership on: 020 8547 8342.
