Commonwealth Education Trust

The Commonwealth Education Trust invests in teachers because a quality education for every child depends on effective, supported, and confident educators. The Foundations of Teaching for Learning programme is for anyone who is teaching, or who would like to teach, in any subject and any context - be it at school, at home or in the workplace. With dynamic lessons taught by established and respected professionals from across the Commonwealth, this eight course programme will see you develop and strengthen your skills in teaching, professionalism, assessment, and more. As you carry on through the programme, you will find yourself strengthening not only your skills, but your connection with colleagues across the globe. Through this programme, teachers learn how to create inclusive, engaging classrooms and improve learning outcomes for all students.
