When teachers improve, more pupils succeed. This CPD poster includes eight ideas from David Weston that underpin the Teacher Development Trust’s work with hundreds of school leaders.

This CPD poster covers the following areas, and more…

Impact: For every new idea or practice, pick a few pupils and a specific topic. How can you make the practice work best for them? Where can you look for evidence you’ve made a difference?
Challenge: The most powerful learning is disruptive. How are you getting new (and sometimes uncomfortable) perspectives on your practice and new ways to see old problems?
Environment: To focus on our own learning we need calm classrooms and supportive leadership. We also need trusting collegial relationships, encouragement and honest, open communication.
Evidence: The best learning draws on the most insightful wisdom and quality evidence. It avoids reinventing the wheel. It deepens your repertoire of what to do, how to do it and why it works. Download our poster on evidence-based leadership.

The Teacher Development Trust works with the entire education sector to promote the principles of good CPD. It harnesses research in order to drive school improvement and create an environment where teachers truly want to work, thrive and stay.
