Real stories from real people about how #RPL can transform careers

In today's Tes The Arthur Terry Learning Partnership (ATLP) CEO RICHARD GILL CBE D.Univ, who is also Chair of the Teaching School Hubs Council, talks about why merging ITT and ECF will boost new teachers’ skills. He says the latest refinements to the teacher development frameworks are another step in the right direction. "As a trust leader, I have learned that for all the challenges a child might face, it is consistently good teaching that is central to achieving this. And carefully designed, evidence-based professional development is fundamental in helping every teacher to develop and strengthen their practice." #ITTECF https://lnkd.in/ei54JWz3

The AP exam season is coming up. Let's make sure we're providing our students with the support they need to succeed: 📚 Help students find free/low-cost AP study guides and practice exams online. Khan Academy is a great free resource. 💸 Remind students to take advantage of College Board fee waivers if cost is a barrier. 👥 Suggest students form study groups with peers - this can make prep more collaborative and fun. 👋 Check in with students regularly as exams approach. Let them know you're available for help and encouragement. By ensuring access and promoting community, we can set up our students for AP exam success. This is one important step on their path to higher education. 🎓 #APExams #StudyTips #Accessibility #EquityInEducation #StudentSuccess #CollegeReadiness #FeeWaivers #Advisors

[Quality Physical Education (QPE) Handbook] Drawing from UNESCO's comprehensive QPE guidelines, this handbook is a testament to my dedication to advancing Physical Education (PE). During my academic years, I recognized the need to bridge theory with practical implementation in QPE. While I lacked the capacity to formulate QPE policies, I envisioned a solution – a handbook tailored for PE teachers, adapted from UNESCO. My work, registered in Intellectual Property Rights, is meticulously designed to aid PE teachers in seamlessly integrating QPE into their teaching practices. It provides detailed guidance on QPE concepts, principles, and effective teaching strategies, empowering teachers with the knowledge and skills to elevate PE education through QPE integration. Hopefully this handbook can have a positive impact on the world of education #PhysicalEducation #QPE #QualityPhysicalEducation #UNESCO #EducationForAll #PJOK

Everyone chooses their university for different reasons. At The School of Education we think about the career you will have after you graduate from Day One. As an educator, you have an influence over hundred and thousands of people during your career. That is why we ensure we stick to the standards and guidelines of The CAEP. These standards keep our students in line with what is expected of every future educator. Here is why this accreditation is important: P-12 Learners – outcomes based evidence means all learners are at the center of determining effectiveness of educators Teacher Educators – since the process is infused with research and development, the knowledge base of effective practice will grow State education agencies – provides a strong partner for quality assurance, helps connect the national consensus on preparation to state-level policy and provide support for a state’s own authorization/accountability system Education Professionals – rigorous standards elevate the profession

Last month we published our annual report.   This video looks at all 3 stages of the ‘golden thread’ of teacher development:   1️⃣ initial teacher education (ITE) 2️⃣ early career framework (ECF) 3️⃣ national professional qualifications (NPQs)   You can read the report here: https://lnkd.in/eEcDH_x4   And the teacher development chapter here: https://lnkd.in/e3YuGqXQ   Our inspections of ITE found some good practice. Many trainees found the experience positive.   77% of age-phase ITE providers inspected under our new framework were good or outstanding.   This year, we also inspected all six ECF lead providers:   👉 Four were outstanding 👉 Two were good   We will start full inspections of NPQ lead providers next spring.   Most early career teachers we spoke to have had a positive experience of their training.   They said they are getting the knowledge, understanding and skills they need.   We are also very pleased to see continuing improvements in training teachers to teach early reading.   This is true at early years, primary, and secondary phases.   #Ofsted #AnnualReport #TeacherDevelopment
