Cardiff Partnership for ITE

The Cardiff Partnership for Initial Teacher Education comprises Cardiff Metropolitan University and its associated partner schools, working in collaboration with University of Oxford, Cardiff University, Central South Consortium (CSC), Education Achievement Service (EAS), and City of Cardiff Council.

Together, the Cardiff Partnership collaborates to ensure that our student teachers not only achieve, but seek to surpass the professional standards for QTS through high-quality professional education that is rigorously practical and intellectually challenging.

Are you a school looking to empower tomorrow's teachers to realise their potential?

OUR COMMITMENT TO INCLUSIVITY

In line with Welsh Government priorities and Cardiff Metropolitan University’s objectives, the Cardiff Partnership aims to be an equitable and welcoming place for all student teachers and staff involved in initial teacher education. This involves being proactive in the education of different forms of racism ensuring that all stakeholders demonstrate a commitment to anti-racist practice and to the wellbeing of society as a whole.
