Course programme

Preparation
All participants are required to fill in a Pre-Course questionnaire. It is very important that this is returned at the earliest opportunity as the course is pre-planned based on this. The course content is outlined and discussed on the first morning, and is then adapted as appropriate.

Outcomes
The process of reflecting on your own classroom experience and being exposed to a wide range of teaching techniques, as both teachers and learners, will help you to be a more knowledgeable and creative classroom
practitioner.
