Abstract

This thesis seeks to explore the realities of taking the lead in the SD (School Direct) model of school-led model of Initial Teacher Training (ITT). It focuses on the perceptions of a selected group of 12 Primary Head Teachers across two School Direct Alliances in England as they embark upon their first experience of training a cohort of PGCE (Post Graduate Certificate in Education) student teachers. The study is situated at a time when school-led routes for the preparation of future teachers are gaining ground and partnership agreements between schools and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are evolving.
