Shift in Professional Development Approaches in Education Sector
There has been a notable shift in the education sector towards more in-house professional development (PD) offers in schools. Previously, teachers were often sent to external day courses for CPD, but now there's an emphasis on tailoring PD to suit the specific needs of teachers, pupils, and schools. This shift aims to integrate ongoing teacher development as a fundamental part of teachers' daily work and improve practices continuously.
