Professional Development

Welcome to the Professional Development page at Brooke Weston Academy.

Teaching and learning is at the heart of Brooke Weston Academy. As a school community we recognise the importance of excellent teaching and learning in raising aspirations and driving the progress of our students. As an Academy, we engage in a research informed yet reflective approach to ensure all staff are equipped to support our students to learn effectively. We are proud to offer a robust and reflective professional development curriculum which responds to the needs of staff and students. Professional development at BWA recognises that to be effective it must be bespoke. Professional development must reflect where the teacher is on their journey; it is only with this understanding that meaningful high quality professional development can occur. CPD offered at the Academy is multi-faceted including whole school professional development, dedicated subject specific enhancement alongside bespoke CPD for individuals and members of the leadership team. A culture of reflection and collaboration is integral at Brooke Weston enabling teachers to provide the highest quality of learning for our students.
