The Teacher Training Resource Bank aims to support the Initial Teacher Education community in its use of evidence to inform practice. Funded by the Training and Development Agency for Schools (formerly the Teacher Training Agency) the project was launched in March 2006 with the following aims:
- To articulate and represent the professional knowledge bases that underpin teacher education
- To increase the range and quality of resources available with ITE especially video based resources.
- To raise the profile of teacher training research and knowledge creation
- Promote change by linking theory, debate and practice
- To provide a personalised support service for teacher educators
The TTRB website consists of peer moderated reviews and summaries of a wide range of materials that have been classified using the British Education Thesaurus of over 8,400 words and other schemas including Qualified Teacher Status standards to aid accessibility.
A dedicated special educational needs (SEN) portal now forms part of the TTRB. The site complements an SEN leaflet, produced by a team of experts, which was sent to all ITT trainers and trainees.
A Partnership micro-site has also been set up to house over 120 resources aimed at improving the quality of school placements within Initial Teacher Education.
