COVID-19 information.
We are committed to providing QT professional development with your health and wellbeing at the forefront of our planning. In order to continue providing high quality PD during these challenging times, we offer our workshops as an interactive learning experience while strictly adhering to NSW Government Health rules and regulations.
Should circumstances change, face-to-face workshops will be changed to an online format. In this case, workshop resources will be sent by mail to all participants prior to the workshop. However, if you register within 7 working days of the workshop, we cannot guarantee delivery before the first day. Resources will also be sent electronically prior to the workshop.
Workshop overview
This workshop is for teachers and leaders who have attended the two-day QTR workshop in the past 3 years and/or who have participated in a set of Quality Teaching Rounds using the Quality Teaching Model to observe, code and discuss lessons.
It is designed to provide teachers familiar with the Quality Teaching Model with the opportunity to observe, analyse and engage in extended discussions of classroom practice with other teachers and workshop facilitators.
