I’ve signed up for CT to learn and improve, not because I think I’m a ‘super-teacher’. I’ve always wanted to do a Masters, but was never ever to justify the expense. The CT programme provides me with that justification. I think people who suggest that HT’s should approve people for the programme fail to understand the nature of it and the majority of the participants.

Most people in my school know that I’m working towards CT, especially my SMT. My course, like yours, is built around action research (or, professional enquiry, as they call it) and it wouldn’t be possible to do this without the SMT knowing.

See you next weekend!
