HASLAM PARK PRIMARY SCHOOL
At Haslam Park we are committed to our learning. The overriding purpose is to help our staff continually improve the quality of their teaching because we know that research tells us the most effective way that children learn is being taught by the most effective teachers.
Our approach to adult learning focuses on developing teacher knowledge of the subjects that they are teaching, developing knowledge of general teaching strategies for example metacognition and specific teaching strategies that apply to different subjects or areas of learning so that learners can learn well in these different subjects.
Professional development allows our staff to build on their interaction skills and learn strategies for helping pupils through increased motivation, confidence and commitment to teaching. Learning these new skills and applying them in the classroom can also lead to a more stimulating and effective teaching environment. We engage with our professional development in a variety of ways. Our approach to development links closely to staff appraisal.
- Self-reflection
- Teachers seeing and sharing good practice including observations and shadowing
- Teachers working alongside their peers
- Reading and research
- Training courses and workshops
- Studying for an external qualification or accreditation
- Online courses/webinars/podcasts
- Mentoring
- Attending exhibitions and conferences
