What our students say
White Rose Alliance secured the ideal school placements for me during my PGCE year and supported me every step of the way through their engaging training sessions - which went hand-in-hand with my university work - and one-on-one check-ins. I always felt the amazing White Rose staff were there to help if I needed it. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

I can’t stress enough how fantastic WRA have been – I have felt not only well supported but like staff have got to know me and helped me grow in my strengths. My placements have suited me really well and have provided the right environment for me to grow in skill and confidence as a teacher. Thank you!

I would just like to say a massive thank you for helping me become a better teacher and person during this year. The support from Jo, my mentors, host teachers and everyone during my time on the course has been invaluable and something that I will never forget
