Teacher Training

Year 1 & 2 Course Dates 2023

The Essential Christian Teacher aims to help teachers define what it means to be a genuinely Christian practitioner in the community of a Christian school of the type that are members of the Christian Schools’ Trust.

Teachers on the course do not have to be qualified teachers but will need the opportunity to apply what they learn in their classrooms on a regular basis. If you have a teaching degree and experience, then this course will refine your practice; If you are a new, young, or inexperienced teacher, then this course will help lay vital foundations in your understanding and practice.

The course helps teachers to focus on key aspects of their own development as distinctively Christian teachers and will focus on their contributions to the Christian learning community, and their school.

The course requires teachers to be released from their schools for two days a year and the other three sessions are online for year one students. For year two students, sessions 1-4 are online with session 5 being a face-to-face meeting.
