outcomes. In other words, a good teacher will achieve better results from their learners than a poor
one and vice versa

the reward of greater professional satisfaction

Models of CPD

into three types
1. Direct teaching (such as courses,
workshops)
2. learning in school (such as peer
coaching, critical friendships,
mentoring, action research) and
3. out of school learning (visits to other
schools, school-university
partnerships and so on)

 Continuous Professional Development of Teachers and other Teaching Personnel
 In-service teacher education shall be developed upon and related to the pre-service teacher education

 In-service training will focus more on capacity building of teachers in identified deficiency areas,
educational leadership and other areas of education for sustainable development etc.
 Continuous Professional Development of Teacher Educators
 Continuous professional development academy/center for Teacher Educators will be set-up in each
province to help them acquire up-to-date knowledge and adopt innovative teaching-learning strategies in
their classrooms
 The CPD courses shall be part of the performance appraisal of teacher educators and linked to their
progression in the profession (NEP, 2017; p. 67)
9
Cont.
Standard-9:Continuous professional development and code of conduct

grow professionally and establish collegial relationship to enhance teaching
and learning process”
10
Cont.
 Focus of CPD Model

school teachers will attend
the professional
development activities on
every PD day (last working
day of each month)
 The focus of the material
will be on Pedagogical
Content Knowledge (PCK)
11
Management of CPD
• At provincial level, PITE will take lead in
managing all the CPD activities in the
field
• At cluster level these activities will be
managed by the Cluster Hub
School/Campus School within a cluster
• At school level school Head will carry out
observation of each teacher twice a week
CPD Model in Pakistan
 The CPD will be delivered through blended mode:
 Face-to-face interaction of trainers (who are referred as Guide Teachers/Subject
Coordinators/facilitator in the framework) with teachers in workshop setting;
 for all teachers within the school and/or at cluster level on regular basis for a short duration (two-hours
to one day), and
 for low performing teachers within District for one week to four-weeks during vacations
 On the job support through mentoring visits of schools by the trainers/ASDEO/ observaio by
Headmaster
 Online support for teacher and trainers through a dynamic web-portal to be administered by a
dedicated team of professionals based at PITE

Conclusion
 Different model were in practice through reginal and international
organization but the new model of CPD now replace all other CPD models
and the impetus to restructure CPD in the provinces has now gained
momentum. There are many advantages of the proposed model including
collaborative working to improve teacher quality and student learning,
reduction in the number of monitors and officers visiting schools, and a
substantial increase in teacher training time. But one great limitation is that
the resources persons are not fully equipped with proper training. Further
more it is a continuing process and help the teachers to reflect on their
practices regularly.

Editor's Notes

  • #4 whereby teachers try to develop their personal and professional qualities, and to improve their knowledge, skills and practice, leading to their empowerment, the improvement of their agency and the development of their organization and their pupils CPD refers to any activity, formal or informal, that helps you develop your skills and knowledge, and enhances your professional practice
  • #7 Training - focuses on skills, with expert delivery, and little practical focus Award Bearing – usually in conjunction with a higher education institution, this brings the worrying discourse on the irrelevance of academia to the fore • Defecit - this looks at addressing shortcomings in an individual teacher, it tends to be individually tailored, but may not be good for confidence and is unsupportive of the development of a collective knowledge base within the school • Cascade – this is relatively cheap in terms of resources, but there are issues surrounding the loss of a collaborative element in the original learning • Standards Based – this assumes that there is a system of effective teaching, and is not flexible in terms of teacher learning. It can be useful for developing a common language but may be very narrow and limiting • Coaching / Mentoring – the development of a non-threatening relationship can encourage discussion, but a coach or mentor needs good communication skills
  • #8 Personalized: Built on your identified needs and requirements rather than a ‘one size fits all’ approach Relevant: Relates to your teaching theory and/ or subject specialism and the needs of your learners Sustained: New skills and ideas need time to take hold; experimentation and refinement is the best way to embed new ideas into your classroom practice Supported: by coaching or mentoring from experienced colleagues, either from within or from outside your school Collaborative: while teaching could be seen as a solitary profession, collaboration with your fellow teachers and colleagues has been identified as one of the most relevant features required for teacher learning
  • #11 The demands of a professional code of conduct.  How educational research can be used as a means for continuous learning, self assessment and development.  How to develop and maintain a personal professional portfolio.  Share successful professional experiences with others
  • #15 PDD will be held on the last working day of every month and the result of the assessment of grade 2 and 5 and need analysis conducted by DCTE and BISE will be used to cover the difficult topic CRO will used (head teacher or ASDEO) to provide constructive feedback the observation sheet will contain Academic calendar, teaching practiceintroduction, development of instructional stratagies, questioning/ evaluation summery and homework Managing learning environment and multigrade teaching SRD it is a daily work in which the teacher will write down their need or difficulties and will be discuss with Head or on PDD QMM will be held at each circle level and Head teachers will participate and will inform the concern officer about the progress
