Primary graduate teacher programme

Following the closure next year of the University of Gloucester London campus the Training and Development Agency have now reallocated the places to other London providers. 

There is no longer a set allocation of places for Redbridge schools. Most of the allocation has been directed to increase PGCE programmes and only three universities have received additional places for the graduate teacher programme.

Universities with additional places for the GTP

  • The Institute of Education - eight places
  • South Bank University - eight places
  • Middlesex University (London North Consortium) - 25 places
  • The Institute and South Bank are already very oversubscribed.

The Institute already has around 100 applications from schools and candidates for their existing 10 places.

The London North Consortium gives priority to its current partnership boroughs Brent, Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey, Islington and Waltham Forest.

Although they would consider Redbridge school applications they are also very oversubscribed and would not be able to offer any guarantee of places.

There are three other existing local GTP providers

  • Forest Independent Collegiate, Chigwell - 12 places
  • University of Cumbria, Tower Hamlets - 26 places
  • SCITTELS, Newham - 16 places.
Please be aware that they are all small providers with existing commitments to partner schools.

We are currently exploring further options with London South Bank University for 2011 onwards.
