Winchester Schools Training Alliance

Winchester Schools Training Alliance

Lead Professional: Mrs. K Evans (Deputy Headteacher)

Winchester Schools Training Alliance is a partnership of twenty-two schools in the Winchester area.  Led by


The Westgate School, our aim is to improve children’s educational experience in the Winchester area by: 

  • Providing high-quality training for the adults who work with those children, through initial teacher training and continuing professional development. 

  • Sharing what we know and what we do, so that all our colleagues and all our schools can benefit. 


Educational standards across our local area are high, with most institutions rated ‘good’ or ‘outstanding’ and this gives us the confidence and capacity to contribute to whole-system improvement across our region. Currently, we offer school led training places in 9 of our alliance schools. 


Our trainees attend the University of Winchester, which has recently achieved another Outstanding rating from Ofsted for its teaching courses.
