Supporting high quality teaching is pivotal in improving children’s outcomes. Indeed, research tells us that high quality teaching can narrow the disadvantage gap. It is therefore hugely encouraging to see a host of new initiatives and reforms that recognise the importance of teacher quality such as the Early Career Framework and the new National Professional Qualifications. These exemplify a growing consensus that promoting effective professional development (PD) plays a crucial role in improving classroom practice and pupil outcomes, and this guidance further reflects this, offering recommendations on how to improve professional development and design and select more impactful PD.
(EEF, Effective Professional Development Guidance Repot, October 2021)
Kingsbridge Institute of Learning together with Kingsbridge EIP SCITT offer a range of evidence-based professional development opportunities to support school leaders in providing its workforce high quality, evidence informed PD, that takes into consideration the context and needs of schools.
These sessions are in Collaboration with Blackpool Research School and the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) to develop teaching techniques |
