Group packages

We work with a whole range of schools, trusts and organisations at different points in their journey towards embedding a culture of evidence-informed practice.

“Group membership with the Chartered College offers learning as a wider trust team which builds our collective wisdom and helps us develop a shared language to drive school improvement. It’s incredibly powerful.” 

Nicki Antwis, Executive Director of Learning, Diocese of Bristol Academies Trust

Research shows:

• Having effective teachers is the most important in-school factor for student achievement (Slater et al., 2012; Kane et al., 2013)

• Numerous studies have shown that continuing professional development (CPD), which provides opportunities for collaboration and critical reflection, can positively impact teacher effectiveness and student learning (Fletcher-Wood & Zuccollo, 2020; Kennedy, 2016; Sims et al., 2021)

• Teachers working in supportive professional environments develop further than their peers (Kraft & Papay, 2014)

The Chartered College of Teaching is your professional body for teaching, a not-for-profit charity independent of government, and a “trusted broker of evidence” (EEF, 2021) on what makes teaching and leadership most effective.

In an ever-changing educational landscape, we’re committed to providing accredited, rigorous and accessible CPD and resources – and to equipping staff with the tools to engage in research to drive sustainable school improvement.
