Control Your Professional Development

admin — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 14:58:31 +0000

This programme takes a look at how teachers can decide the direction of their own careers, right from the outset.

Lorne Charles explains how he has avoided the isolation that a classroom can bring by taking on CPD with the help of the General Teaching Council.

In the studio, Peter Curran talks to Anne Jasman from the General Teaching Council and Alison Kitson from the Training and Development Agency. Peter is also joined by Patrick Nash from the Teacher Support Network, and all discuss how to judge what CPD to take on and when.

The programme also explains how to put the skills into practice, while various teachers discuss the benefits that CPD has brought them.
