CPD TRAINING

“A mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.” – William Arthur Ward, American motivational writer

Teacher is a lifelong learner. To become a great teacher, it is very important to keep updating skills. The Salwan Education Trust helps in developing the skills of the teachers through various CPD programmes. CPD equips teachers with new techniques in preparing learners for real life. It helps the teachers to grow professionally and enhance the teaching- learning process by integrating latest developments in the field of education.

The objectives of CPD are to :

• ensure teachers keep pace with the current standards of  education.
• help teachers to update their knowledge and skills to be able to deliver high-quality teaching and  impact positively on pupil outcomes.
• create more effective workplaces through career enhancement of teachers by helping them move into new positions where they can lead, manage, influence, coach and mentor others.
• open them up to new possibilities, new knowledge and new skills.
• enable teachers to develop more confidence in themselves, others and the profession as a whole.
• contribute to the improvement in the quality of learning and teaching process.

CPD programmes are conducted for teachers twice every year in the months of May and January by Salwan Education Trust. Apart from this, teachers also attend various training programmes throughout the year to ensure learning never stops. Different topics are taken into consideration for CPD programmes to enhance the teaching- learning process like, Creativity in teaching, Artificial Intelligence, Bloom’s Taxonomy, ICT in education, Interdisciplinary projects, assessment process and techniques etc.

Hence, CPD provides opportunities to teachers to apply their newly acquired knowledge in practice. It is essential for teachers to be guided to develop their own ideas and experiment with them in order to determine their success.
