The Cpd Curriculum: Creating Conditions for Growth
Great teachers make a difference. And if we want to see great outcomes for all students, schools need to develop all of their teachers - and we need them to believe that this is possible. There is a wealth of research on professional learning, from both within and outside the education sphere, and this book pulls it all together in order to assist leaders in enabling their staff to enhance their practice.
In The CPD Curriculum Zoe and Mark Enser suggest how schools can overcome issues with CPD that can leave teachers plateauing in their development after just a few years, and which may leave some sceptical about the changes often thrust upon them. The authors discuss the idea of a curriculum for CPD that mirrors the thinking underpinning the school curriculum for pupils - that is, delivering CPD as a clearly planned programme that builds on teachers' prior knowledge.
Split into three parts - covering intent, implementation and impact - the book explores a range of topics, including: coaching and mentoring, subject-specific CPD, empowerment and self-efficacy, use of educational research, and delivery methods and quality of materials.
