Standard Teaching Programme

Build The Capacity of Every Teacher

Every classroom needs a great teacher. And every teacher needs great support if they want to be the best they can be. The QHC Standard Teaching Programme provides just that. A fully realized, expertly crafted programme, containing a suite of six core courses, each of which targets a crucial area of effective teaching. Whether you’re an individual teacher looking to develop and enhance your practice, or a school leader seeking to build the capacity of your teachers, this programme contains everything you need to maximize the impact of teaching and learning.

With a carefully considered, evidence-informed mixture of theory and practice, the Standard Teaching Programme helps teachers to think critically about their own teaching, develop and improve their skills, learn new strategies and techniques, and supercharge their impact on learning. Through the programme, teachers have the opportunity to study thoughtfully constructed courses covering:

Effective Lesson Planning
Expert use of Assessment for Learning
Sustainable Approaches to Differentiation
Impactful Questioning
Meaningful Group Work and Collaborative Learning
Positive Classroom Management

Each individual course takes teachers on a learning journey, building on their existing skills and helping them to develop into more successful, more adept and more reflective practitioners.

Practical learning is at the heart of the Standard Teaching Programme. Teachers have multiple opportunities to refine and improve their classroom practice, through a process of new learning, application to real-life scenarios, and critical reflection. This learning cycle, embedded in the programme structure, helps teachers to make rapid progress, whatever their starting points.

The Standard Teaching Programme provides the cornerstone for individual and school-wide professional development. Sign up today and supercharge learning in your classrooms.
