    Consultation description

    This consultation invites your views on a renewed professional learning strategy for teachers in Northern Ireland: one that reflects the central, indispensable role of teaching in achieving excellence across our education system. 

    As set out in the TransformED Strategy, the quality of teaching is the single most important in‑school factor in influencing pupil outcomes, closely followed by the quality of school leadership. 

    Sustained investment in high-quality professional development is a cornerstone of the Department’s TransformED Strategy. This new strategy, Leading Together for Excellence: A TransformED NI Strategy for Teacher Professional Learning, builds on the foundations laid by Learning Leaders and translates the ambitions of TransformED into a coherent, deliverable plan for career-long professional learning.
