Resource Suite

We want to help you and your school attract and retain the best possible teachers, and to maximise the resources in your school.

With that in mind, we have developed an online audit tool for all schools to use for free.

The audit tool makes suggestions about which actions might be higher priority for your school and guides you to the most relevant areas of the toolkit.

We strongly recommend that schools complete the audit as a first step, to ensure you get the most out of this toolkit.


Build Partnerships

It is essential for schools to build and foster strong relationships with their local and regional training providers. A partnership with an ITT provider is probably the most powerful way to improve and sustain effective recruitment of high-quality teachers.

If your school wants to get more involved in ITT by hosting placements and working with an accredited ITE provider, you can access 19 providers across the West Midlands by completing our Get Involved tool:

If you are an ITE provider who needs support with placement capacity, use our tool to access support from Teaching School Hubs across the West midlands:
