Empowering middle leaders to trial and embed evidence-informed pedagogies in their classrooms to lead sustainable change.
With a new focus on developing middle leaders, WE Lab Classrooms supports innovative and passionate practitioners to lead sustainable and purposeful change over time.
The programme is an opportunity to engage critically with ‘two for one’ teaching and learning approaches – those which research indicates develop both academic knowledge and wider skills and qualities (for example, teamwork and communication).
Middle leaders will have access to coaching and expert support as they put together an action research project, alongside the opportunity to collaborate with hundreds of like minded peers from across England.
“This has been an excellent opportunity to develop my teaching practice and potentially one of the most worthwhile pieces of CPD I have completed to date.” – Lab Classrooms participant
