Location of The University of Edinburgh

This programme will be of particular interest to teachers who are not yet eligible to undertake the Chartered Teacher programme.
This programmes aims to:
provide students with the opportunity to develop the capacity to appraise and manage their own professional development;
engage in reflection on the nature and effectiveness of current practice with peers from their own or other professional backgrounds;
deepen and broaden students´ familiarity and engagement with new information, perspectives and approaches (both practical and theoretical).
Students undertake modules, which, together with evidence of their professional development and impact gathered through their teaching role, they might use later as the basis for a claim for accreditation of prior learning towards Chartered Teacher status.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of the programme, students should be able to use a range of approaches to social and professional enquiry and a variety of methodologies and investigative techniques.
