When you joined the teaching profession, you
would have no doubt wondered about the meaning of the term ‘professional teacher’. You might have also wondered if you were viewed as a ‘professional’. This programme opens up a world of new understandings about teaching and learning. It assumes that you are entering the programme with your own understandings through your experiences, including academic, professional and personal. The staff at the SoE therefore recognises that we are building on what you already know and believe. I urge you to view yourself as a traveller on the professional continuum, thirsty for new insights that would enable you to ultimately make a positive difference to your school community and thereby impact the wider society. To use an old adage “you get from it what you put into it” with regard to this programme Do take this opportunity to build your professional learning community, take stock of who you are, dig deep. This programme will help you to empower yourself by laying bare your weaknesses in order to gain strength. Make your lecturers and fellow teachers your allies as you wage war against nonchalance, ignorance, disinterest and myopia. This programme seeks to bring out the best in you. Let it happen!
