Programmes for Teachers
Need
Teacher education has become an area of considerable interest among policy makers in many countries over recent years. This reflects a growing body of research on the central importance of teacher knowledge and skill to quality learning opportunities for students. It also reflects the need to train in-service teachers in latest methodology and technology, to make teaching-learning process ‘smart’ and enjoyable. ‘Horizons’ firmly believe that the need to recruit and prepare a new generation of teachers is very important in modernising our educational system.
Research on teacher education in the Teaching and Leadership Programme has steadily grown over the past five years to the point where Horizons is arguably the major centre for large-scale research in this area. Our dedicated team includes award winners and highly experienced educators, who are highly competent in organising Teacher Orientation and Personality Development Programmes.
