Professional Learning Modules
We believe that the best professional learning and development for teachers is one where they connect and collaborate, delve into the core of their profession with clear learning objectives and link their professional learning to the reality of their classroom. We also believe that PLD should involve an application of teachers’ learning in their own context with a chance to give and receive feedback, in order to become genuine reflective practitioners.
