National Professional Qualification in Leading Teaching (NPQLT)

We are pleased to announce that we are partnering with Ambition Institute to deliver the new NPQ for Leading Teaching. In 12 months, participants will discover what outstanding teaching looks like and use this knowledge to become high-performing leaders of teaching.

Those doing the training will learn: 

• How to become excellent leaders of teaching.
• How to unpack and apply learning in teaching, curriculum and assessment.
• At a time and pace that suits their existing timetable.

How you will learn:

• The content is delivered through blended learning over a period of 12 months. This includes a mix of real-time interactive sessions, face-to-face training, peer-led sessions and self-guided modules you complete in your own time.
  • 1 x full day conference (facilitated, in-person)
  • 6 x courses (each course lasts six weeks and loosely aligned to a school half term).  Each course includes six modules which you complete on Steplab, your online learning platform.
  • 5 x two-hour clinics (facilitated, online 4-6pm)
  • 1 x two-hour assessment clinic (facilitated, in-person)
  • 3 x communities (1hr 15mins group sessions)

• Access to the latest learning, meaning high quality teaching and improved pupil outcomes.
