Teacher Workshops

“The most important learners in a school are its teachers.”

What We Offer

We provide a wide range of training for teachers from national and international schools. We specialise in short courses for International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) teachers and run 2 ½ day workshops in many subjects - as well as for IBDP coordinators & administrators. Most of our autumn workshops are for teachers new to the IBDP, and most of our spring workshops are for experienced IBDP teachers. With the exception of language workshops (e.g. French B, German B, Spanish B) the language of instruction of our workshops is English.

We also offer thematic workshops for teachers at both secondary (12-18 year olds) and primary (5-11 year olds) level which are relevant to people teaching in any programme. Among the topics we cover are: Critical Thinking, Educating the Whole Person, English as the Language of Instruction, ICT, Promoting International Mindedness, Study Skills, University Counselling.
