Forest Learning Alliance - Who we are?

Forest Learning Alliance  is a group of schools from all settings, and other educational professionals based in East Berkshire. We work together to provide high quality support for all areas of school and career stage teacher development opportunities.

The lead school is Uplands Primary School, which was designated as a  National Teaching School in March 2013. We are also an accredited provider for National Professional Qualifications, designated by the DfE in January 2018.

 

Teaching Schools have been established to the delivery of a school led improvement and have 3 key responsibilities, these are:

  • provide high-quality school-led initial teacher training (ITT);
  • providing high-quality school-to-school support to spread excellent practice, particularly to schools who need it most;
  • providing evidence-based professional and leadership development for teachers and leaders

Train to Teach

Uplands Primary School is the lead school for the Forest Learning Alliance School Direct Partnership. We are working with a group of 20 primary schools within our local area to recruit, train and support School Direct trainees from September 2016.

We offer either General Primary salaried or General Primary non-salaried placements.

Why consider teaching?

As a teacher, you can inspire the next generation and help them realise their ambitions. That means you can go home each day knowing you’ve made a real difference, giving all young people the chance to fulfil their potential. At Uplands Primary School, we are offering you the chance to join us for a school experience day, when you will be able to observe classes at work and talk to outstanding teachers and staff about teaching.

The School Direct programme is a year long, school based training programme which results in the recommendation for QTS. Trainees will be based in a local school, supported by a high-quality mentor who will support them throughout the course, and will receive training through the University of Reading. In addition to this, our local alliance will offer tailored training to meet the needs of our trainees on local level.

Applications for the 2021/22 academic year will soon be accepted via the UCAS Teacher Training Application site.

Please do browse our website for further information, and do get in touch to find out more.
