Teaching School Hubs (TSHs) are school-led centres of excellence in professional development, delivering training and support to teachers and school leaders at every stage of their career. TSHs deliver the ‘golden thread’ reforms and are at the forefront of our national professional development infrastructure. They play a significant role in delivering the Early Career Framework (ECF), National Professional Qualifications (NPQs), school-based Initial Teacher Training (ITT) and Appropriate Body (AB) services. This competition will designate TSHs for delivery for the next designation period of September 2024 – August 2028.

TSHs are central to the training and development of teachers throughout their career, providing evidence-based programmes and qualifications. They support teachers to progress through whichever career pathway they choose. As Good or Outstanding lead schools, TSHs apply their experience of raising standards through delivery of teacher development in the local area. This in-depth understanding of the local delivery context and professional development knowledge enables TSHs to engage with local schools to drive up recruitment and to deliver high-quality teacher development provision. TSHs support the development of teachers working in all phases and school types in their local area, through delivery of ITT, the ECF, NPQs and Appropriate Body (AB) services.
