one of the most important is the development and deepening
of culture in which we recognise that it is professionals, not
bureaucratic strategies and initiatives, which drive school
improvement.
Teachers grow as professionals by allowing their work to be
observed by other professionals, and observing the very best
in their field, in turn.
Mentoring others is often the best form of professional
development.
…….that is why we will write off the student loan payments of
science and maths graduates who go into teaching.
Teaching is a craft and it is best learnt as an apprentice
observing a master craftsman or woman. Watching others, and
being rigorously observed yourself as you develop, is the best
route to acquiring mastery in the classroom.
