The Centre for Education and School Partnerships at LSBU has an enviable reputation for providing excellent initial teacher education that reflects the needs of London’s schools. The current provision is made up of Primary PGCE CORE and School Direct trainees. The Centre had Ofsted in June 2014 and was rated as good. The report identified many outstanding features of the programmes specific to LSBU provision.
The Centre works as a partnership with schools, Local Authorities, NGOs and a range of cultural and educational organisations, to provide high quality, cutting edge learning, teaching and research with a strong emphasis on social justice.
