CPD Webinar for Teachers on Tuesday 23rd April 7pm
Who is this webinar for?
You are a teacher who would like a better understanding of Universal Design for Learning (UDL).
You are a teacher who would like to hear tips from a UDL Practitioner on embedding the UDL approach into classroom practice.
This webinar would suit teachers in primary who are interested in upskilling in UDL.
Why have you created this webinar?
We created this webinar because 93% of teachers we surveyed know “little to absolutely nothing” about UDL (Rahoo, 2024).
“Learning is as unique to individuals as their fingerprints or DNA”. (Hall et al., 2012). As our classrooms become increasingly diverse, our teaching practices must also adapt to reflect the changing landscape. Teachers will have an opportunity to explore Universal Design for Learning framework and how it can support diverse learners and promote inclusive pedagogical approaches.
We are passionate about professional development for teachers and have worked with over 15,000 teachers since 2017. As a teacher, you are the most important person in the classroom – you make the greatest impact on the students in front of you.
The webinar is 1 hour in duration including Q&A opportunities.
