Why train with Bromley Schools' Collegiate?

We have recently been validated to offer PGCE M (60 credits) and offer comprehensive support for all our trainees undertaking the Master option.
Our schools offer excellent opportunities for future employment.
The Training Programme
Trainees spend all their time in two schools within the consortium, observing lessons and buliding up to planning and teaching lessons themselves.
There are weekly Professional Studies sessions to address theory and consider the practical application to teaching and learning. This is also an opportunity for trainees to meet and share experiences.
Assessment is continuous, based on the trainee's performance in the classroom and on their E-portfolio which includes their professional and subject knowledge development to demonstrate that all Standards required for Qualified Teacher Status have been met.
