The Primary Partnership is an integral part of the Primary ITT department here at the University of Worcester. As part of that department, we follow the aims and priorities of the department. 

Our curriculum for trainees is broken down into eight key areas that link to the Core Content Framework (CCF) and also feature elements that go beyond the CCF. These eight areas formulate the key focus areas which are assessed as part of our formative progress descriptors and move through the stages of Building, Enriching and Thriving.
