Professional Development Centre
Our teachers are committed to ongoing professional development, providing students with an educational experience grounded in current best practices. We also offer training for educators and school leaders around the country, sharing knowledge to benefit other schools.
“Not only will we need highly professional instructors, but we must also be sure that our instructors are well-instructed… We seek not only to train the next generation of expert leaders, but also to develop a professional corps of world-class teachers.”
What We Offer
Our teachers are dedicated to developing themselves as well as our students. Educational instructors at the Professional Development Centre support them to deepen their expertise and put their training into practice. They also collaborate with colleagues across the Aga Khan Schools to share their experience.
We consult with teachers, school leaders and government education bodies to support national education priorities, and have developed outreach programmes for government, private and not-for-profit schools.
Training topics include:
- Teaching literacy
- Using activities in science lessons
- Encouraging participation in maths classes
- Using technology effectively
- Managing classes of students
- Advanced English language
- Providing leadership and management in education
- Sharing knowledge with other teachers
With post-course support for participants and a community feel throughout, we are creating a network of collaborative teachers and school leaders, ready to help each other raise the next generation.
