What is a teaching school?

"Teaching schools are outstanding schools that work with others to provide high-quality training and development to new and experienced school staff.  They are part of the government's plan to give schools a central role in raising standards by developing a self-improving and sustainable school-led system.  By March 2016, the government's goal is to have a network of 600 teaching schools making significant improvements in the quality of teaching, leadership and pupil attainment."
