Edge Hill University has been at the forefront of teacher education for over 135 years, and today it enjoys the enviable position of being one of the country’s most significant providers of education and research for the children’s workforce with a reputation for the highest quality provision, partnership working and delivery.
We provide a solid foundation and environment for real impact on the quality of education across nursery, Reception, Key Stage One, Key Stage 2 Secondary (11-16) and Further Education provision.
Through our partnerships with schools, we ensure that our trainees have strong subject knowledge in the Early Years Foundation Stage and National Curriculum and have the professional skills needed to succeed as teachers. Inclusion and social justice are central to our ITE curriculum.
We strive to provide an outstanding student experience as well as support you in your future employment opportunities or further professional development, tailoring our programmes of study to match the demands of employers.
We very much look forward to working in partnership with you.
