A Harrogate-based teacher training provider has achieved a strong standard across every aspect of its primary and secondary provision.
Red Kite Teacher Training received the outcome following an inspection under Ofsted’s renewed Initial Teacher Education framework.
The result comes as the organisation celebrates ten years as a School Centred Initial Teacher Training provider.
During that time, the partnership has helped hundreds of trainee teachers enter the profession and begin careers in schools across the region and beyond.

Inspectors recognised the quality of the training, mentoring and support offered across the Red Kite partnership.
The report also highlighted the strength of its primary and secondary programmes and how effectively trainees are prepared for the classroom and their future careers.
Collaboration, continuous improvement and the support provided to trainees throughout their training were also praised.
Victoria Lickley, Director of Red Kite Teacher Training, said:
“We are delighted with this outcome and proud that the quality of our work has been recognised through Ofsted’s new inspection framework.
“As we celebrate ten years of Red Kite Teacher Training, this recognition reflects the expertise, commitment and generosity of our partner schools, mentors, Early Career Leaders and wider team.
“We were particularly pleased to see Ofsted recognise the values of wise compassion and professional generosity that continue to shape our partnership.
“Most importantly, this outcome reflects the dedication of our trainees and the positive impact they go on to make in classrooms, schools and communities throughout their careers."
She added:
“We would like to thank everyone who has contributed to our success over the past decade and look forward to building on this success in the years ahead.”
