PGCE - star performance
The Sussex Consortium for Teacher Education and Research has produced a third year of excellent results in the primary PGCE OFSTED inspection of literacy and numeracy.
The course was awarded six grade ones (excellent) and seven grade twos (good). The inspectors cited the mentorship, partnership with schools, integration of the school and university components, calibre of the trainee teachers and the training itself as outstanding features.
Since the consortium was inaugurated three years ago, this has been the most gruelling inspection taking place in four stages over the whole academic year. Vivienne Griffiths and Angela Jacklin of USIE described the inspection as "like spending a year under a microscope" and expressed their thanks to all those involved for their hard work.
