What the school offers its staff
The South Yorkshire Teaching Hub is part of Chorus Education Trust, based at Silverdale School. The Hub was one of the pilot teaching school hubs, funded by the Department for Education and is now part of a national network of 87 teaching hubs.
We aim to be the place to go for teaching news, jobs and training information in the region – for both current teachers and those looking to join the profession. We will develop, co-ordinate and promote the work of a range of partners across Sheffield and Rotherham, supporting the journey of teachers from initial teaching training (ITT) to becoming headteachers and chief executive officers.
