The University of Cambridge has reapplied for approval to continue providing teacher training after refusing in the first round earlier this year.
As Schools Week revealed, the university failed to apply to the February round of reaccreditation saying there were “important inconsistencies” in the government’s teacher training reforms.
The university confirmed that it has now applied in round two, which closed today.
In a statement, they said following clarifications on the reforms, published by the Department for Education last month, they have “sufficient confidence” to submit an application and “hope to be able to pursue this to completion”.
