Wipro SEF Program in the UK was established in 2018-19, following comprehensive consultations with stakeholders from CSOs, the Education Department, academics, and educational specialists. Teacher recruitment and retention in STEM subjects, especially in government-identified regions of low social mobility, was identified as a high priority area. We initiated partnerships with two public research universities: King’s College London (KCL) and Sheffield Hallam University (SHU), with a financial commitment of about USD 1 million over three years.
King’s College London is an internationally renowned university delivering exceptional education and world-leading research. It is dedicated to driving positive and sustainable change in society and realising our vision of making the world a better place. King’s College London, through its commitment to exceptional education, impactful research and genuine service to society, is creating positive change in our communities, both in London and on the world stage.
The Wipro Teacher Fellow and Teacher Mentors programme is based in the Sheffield Institute of Education at Sheffield Hallam University in Sheffield, South Yorkshire.
The Sheffield Institute of Education is a national centre of education, recognised for our excellence and innovation in teaching and learning. From early years through to higher education, we’re a hub for excellence, innovation and knowledge advancement in childhood and young people’s development and learning.
