National Professional Development Policy

Professional Development aims to build the capacity of teachers to ensure they continue to strengthen teaching practices to improve student development and learning in their classrooms. The reality of the profession is changing very swiftly placing the demand for skilful teachers in all classrooms. Various changes have been introduced in schools, focusing on the needs of our children to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes that are often different from those taught to their parents. In addition, other changes have been driven by multiple factors such as technology, the environment, economic and social status and government policies.
