Supporting High Quality Professional Learning Across Saudi Arabia
We are pleased to announce a new membership partnership with Elite Group Education, designed to support the professional growth, recognition and development of educators working across Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC region.
The partnership will bring together our two organisations united by a shared commitment to raising educational standards through evidence-informed practice, high-quality professional learning and investment in the teaching profession.
As the professional body for teachers, the Chartered College of Teaching exists to empower a knowledgeable and respected teaching profession. Through membership, professional accreditation and access to world-leading educational research, the College supports teachers and leaders to develop their expertise, strengthen their practice and maximise their impact on children and young people.
Elite Group Education has established itself as a leading UK-Saudi education organisation, supporting schools, educators and education systems through professional learning, school improvement, leadership development and international partnerships. The organisation plays an important role in advancing educational excellence across the region, helping schools build capacity and develop sustainable cultures of improvement.
Together, we will work to increase access to high-quality professional learning and professional recognition for educators working in British international schools and other education settings across the GCC. The partnership aligns closely with both organisations’ strategic ambitions to champion excellence in teaching, support career-long professional development and strengthen the status of the profession.
Through the partnership, educators in Saudi Arabia will have access to the Chartered College’s global network of more than 45,000 education professionals, alongside a wealth of resources designed to support evidence-informed practice. These include access to the award-winning Impact journal, research summaries, online events, professional learning courses and specialist hubs covering key areas of educational practice.
Educators will also be able to explore our professional accreditation pathways, including Chartered Teacher Status, Chartered Leadership Status and Chartered Mentor Status, as well as Fellowship, our most prestigious membership grade, which recognises a significant and sustained contribution to the profession.
Educators engaging through Elite Group Education can benefit from a discount on their first year of Chartered College of Teaching membership.
At a time when education systems across the world are focused on developing and retaining high-quality teachers and leaders, this partnership represents an important investment in the people at the heart of education. By combining international expertise, professional recognition and evidence-informed practice, the Chartered College of Teaching and Elite Group Education are working together to support educators to thrive and improve outcomes for the children and young people they support.
