2 ACTDEC Teaching Practice Portfolio Scheme
For anyone without teaching experience it is now possible to undertake a two-month teaching development practicum where, as a result of completing a Teaching Practice Portfolio maintained by the participant and the sponsoring institution, teaching experience is recognised and rewarded. Full details can be obtained by visiting the Teaching Practice section of the ACTDEC website. The Teaching Practice certificate can be viewed on the ACTDEC website at the foot of the Teaching Practice page — www.ACTDEC.org.uk.
This scheme makes it possible for teachers with Associate or Accredited Teacher status to obtain an ACTDEC Certificate of Teaching Practice Development at the end of the two-month development practicum.
Any school abroad can sponsor a teacher providing they are able to meet the following criteria.
- The sponsoring school is able to offer a minimum of six hours unobserved but supervised teaching practice during the first month and a further six hours observed and assessed teaching practice during the remainder of the practicum.
- The school is able to provide documentary evidence of recognised professional standing in the locality.
