CPD Training For Better Teaching and Learning

At NAEC we are passionate about providing CPD training that directly improves the quality of teaching and learning. Our coaching model minimises the need for cover and actually enhances pupil learning. Our advisers are all successful and qualified teachers. They plan lessons with the teachers with the new strategies and team-teach to secure the implementation. Our CPD training is designed for the individual institution. A Teaching and Learning Audit helps match the CPD training to the outcomes of the improvement plan.

We provide effective CPD training to a range of schools and academies in the following areas.

CPD Training With No Interruptions To Learning

Often CPD training can be disruptive. It is expensive to provide cover for teachers while they receive CPD training. Face to face sessions can be great for inspiring new ideas or raising issues. NAEC can deliver excellent training as part of a teacher day or even provide for the whole day. Our advisors work with teachers to plan their lessons at your school. We then support them in the lessons as they try out the new strategies. This way the training has an instant impact on lesson planning and delivery. Learners do not have to manage without their teacher and change is embedded quickly and effectively.
