Abstract

This paper draws upon recent research and literature to discuss what is known about effective professional development. It begins with a brief discussion of terminology and offers a definition of professional development before investigating in more detail what constitutes effective professional development. This links to a discussion about the nature of learning communities and how professional development is led within such communities. Finally, we consider the changing nature of provision and approaches to teacher development and learning with a greater focus on school-based provision with a practitioner emphasis.
