West Sussex Teaching School Hub

GLF Schools

GLF Schools was founded in 2012 in order to enable the federation of Glyn School (an academy in 2011) and Danetree Junior School. Together, we began our journey to become a MAT of more than 1000 talented staff working with over 10,000 children in 40 schools across 5 regions in southern England.

Key Reports and Policies

As a Teaching School Hub, we know it can be hard to keep up to date with policy developments around Professional Development and changes to the DFE’s Golden Thread programmes.

As a result we have created this page to share with you key policy and evaluation documents relating to professional development.
