The key to CPD in schools

I am trying to put together a very brief "this is what professional development for teachers in schools should look like" document.

This is my starter, please comment:

• There should be personalisation for teachers as well as for students.


• There should be a seamless progression from Beginning Teacher (PGCE/GTP) to Head teacher.

• All teachers should be exemplar learners.

• Accreditation should be awarded which is transferable to other institutions.

• CPD should be linked to performance management and drives school improvement.

• Interest in research evidence and participation should be encouraged.
