Inspiring Teachers, Outstanding Learners

EKLA CPD OFFER FOR 2020/21 ACADEMIC YEAR WILL BE PUBLISHED ONCE FINALISED

 

The Inspiring Teachers, Outstanding Learners programme is designed to encourage self-reflection as a Learner and a Teacher. Placing the emphasis on developing outstanding learners helps to move the teachers to inspiring and outstanding whilst avoiding a tick-box approach to progress. Participants place their understanding within the local and national context and use Ofsted standards as a basis for improvement.
