Enrichment

Recommended for: Teachers and school leaders, all levels

Our Enrichment Professional Development is perfect for teachers and school leaders who want to transform their approach to teaching. Experienced Cambridge trainers lead educators in exploring key skills in teaching and learning, from concepts to practical strategies. Workshops include: Active learning and assessment for learning, Metacognition: boosting students’ learning, and more.

Enrichment courses

Introductory (syllabus-specific)

Recommended for: Teachers new to Cambridge or a subject area

Introductory courses introduce teachers to Cambridge syllabuses and curriculum frameworks in their subject area. Teachers are introduced to the resources available online and off. Instructors will also familiarize teachers with the Cambridge approach to teaching and learning.

Syllabus-specific courses

Extension (syllabus-specific)

Recommended for: Teachers who have been teaching a Cambridge subject area for at least one year

Extension training helps experienced teachers to get a deeper understanding of syllabus aims and assessment objectives; explore how to use sample questions and examiner reports to support learners; and further understand and apply mark schemes to recent candidate responses. Extension training also includes online marking workshops for either coursework or exam papers, and training on improving speaking performance.

Syllabus-specific courses
