Hub Partners
Strong partnerships are at the heart of Red Kite Teaching School Hub. We work with a diverse network of schools, alliances, universities and specialist education organisations, bringing together knowledge, experience and expertise to support teachers, leaders and schools across our region.
Each of our partners brings something different to the network, from evidence-informed practice and curriculum expertise to school improvement, professional development and teacher training. By working collaboratively, sharing expertise and connecting schools with the right support, we can create more opportunities for learning, development and improvement.
