Professional Development Centre

Our teachers are committed to continuing professional development to give students an educational experience based on current best practice. We also offer training for educators and school leaders around the country, sharing knowledge to benefit other schools.

“Not only will we need highly professional instructors, but we must also be sure that our instructors are well-instructed…. We seek not only to train the next generation of expert leaders, but also to develop a professional corps of world-class teachers.”
His Highness the Aga Khan, Foundation stone-laying ceremony,

Our Network

What We Offer

Our teachers are dedicated to developing themselves as well as our students. Educational instructors at the Professional Development Centre support them to deepen their expertise and put their training into practice. They also collaborate with colleagues around the Academies Network to share their experience.

We consult with teachers, school leaders and government education bodies to support national education priorities, and have developed outreach programmes for government, private and not-for-profit schools.

With post-course support for participants and a community feel throughout, we are creating a network of collaborative teachers and school leaders, ready to help each other raise the next generation.

“I learned that both students and teachers, everyone, can learn from each other.”
