Leading Total-Quality Teaching throughout an Independent School
Consistency and High-Expectations
ABOUT THIS PROGRAMME
Leading Total-Quality Teaching consists of 6 specifically designed modules, each focusing on developing and promoting different aspects of highly effective teaching and learning. Individuals will be supported in developing a deeper understanding around a number of key issues and how to design and plan high-impact professional development.
Consistency, high expectations and high standards are not an ideal but rather a necessity and the drive to achieve these components should be led by highly skilled, knowledgeable and confident in- school facilitators. This virtual CPD programme will support participants in developing their understanding of greater depth teaching and learning and will seek to increase an individual’s confidence in leading highly effective and rigorous professional learning experiences.
