Synopsis
Reforms by the UK's Department for Education and Skills (DfES), for teachers in the Lifelong Learning Sector, have lead to the introduction of a "Licence to Practice" for all practitioners. Beginning in 2007, all UK teachers and trainers will need to provide evidence of a minimum of 30-35 hours of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) per annum, together with reflection on the likely impact of these developments on their practice. This text provides practitioners and staff-developers with a wide range of CPD activities and simple reflective models, which will capitalize on existing skills and knowledge while encouraging active and meaningful professional reflection and growth.
