Teachers' Professional Development

School Staff Matter

As a school leader, you want the best teachers because you know the best teachers mean the best results for your pupils. Results matter (all teachers know that), but we know that there is more to results than the grade. Teacher Ije is all about building learners, developing teachers and supporting leaders.

How can you equip your teachers and leadership team? Do you want to be an even more effective  leader? How can you empower your teachers to truly understand a diverse group of learners and inspire each and every one? Teacher Ije’s affordable and timely CPD events and training promise to transform your school one leader and teacher at a time. This is what your school needs. This is what every teacher needs. This is what your learners deserve.

Please see example INSETs and workshops below.

Empowering Environments: Checking Cultures

One visionary leader once said to a supply teacher that they have perhaps more experience than an individual who has been in one setting. Every supply teacher and experienced teacher can spot a weak classroom or school culture. In this workshop, we will explore real-life examples of children, teachers and young adults in schools and examine how our learners are products of our systems: the good, the bad and the ugly of our systems. Importantly, we will explore how to build empowering environments with life changing and society bettering impact.

Breaking the Burnout Cycle

It’s because of Ofsted. It’s the government's expectations. It’s the postcode. This is what we all say, but is it always the whole truth? Find out how your school can break the cycle.

I Spy Something Beginning with L: Leaders

What is a leader? Do they look a certain way? Society thinks it has it sussed. Leaders come from certain schools and look and speak in a certain way and are most certainly extroverts. But is that the whole truth? Find out how your school can ensure it is getting the best leaders and the best from leaders.

Curriculum Examined

You think you've got a great curriculum, but you're hearing various cries: 'decolonisation' from the world of education; 'not fit for the 21st century' from society and 'not fit for purpose' from business leaders. Is it just a woke or capitalist call or are there some things worth considering? In this session(s), you will explore the arguments and will be given the tools to examine your own curriculum based on your learning and discussions. If you are looking for a detailed curriculum review, Teacher Ije can also offer this.

Diversity: Strength vs Stumbling Block 

What’s it really like for children and staff who are the minority? What are the positives? What are the pitfalls? How can we help each and every child and staff to thrive? Whether you are about to start or continue this journey, come and explore how the diversity in your school can be a strength rather than a stumbling block. Note: Diversity goes beyond race.
