Building Professional Learning Communities in the NT

NT DEET Professional Learning Policy defines Professional Learning as ‘opportunities or experiences that promote enhanced skills, knowledge, attributes, attitudes and behaviours of staff ‘ As we begin to describe the ways in which Professional Learning is evolving in our education system we increasingly focus on teacher learning that develops within a culture of collaboration and collective responsibility and is explicitly linked to student learning. Professional Learning in schools is aligned, appropriate, collaborative, supported by leadership at all levels and requires individual commitment.
