Accreditation for leading teachers

Working with key partners at the Department for Children, Schools and Families, the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) and Oxford Brookes University, the National Strategies' gifted and talented programme is piloting a systematic approach to professional development and support leading to accreditation through the award of the Postgraduate Certificate in Advanced Educational Practice.

This pilot is taking place during the autumn term of 2007 and the spring term of 2008.

The outcomes are planned to be disseminated during the summer term of 2008 and will inform more widespread accreditation opportunities for leading teachers from September 2008.
