杰出教师成就杰出学校| Outstanding Teachers, Outstanding Schools

At Nord Anglia Education, we believe that outstanding teachers create outstanding schools.

This is why our world-renowned professional development programme has been designed to support our teachers at every stage of their career. Developed by Nord Anglia’s central and regional education teams in association with our Education Advisory Board, it offers our teachers direct access to hundreds of face-to-face learning opportunities, online courses and educational resources, all with the aim of driving exceptional quality teaching and learning in our schools. Its formal accreditation by the Learning and Performance Institute (LPI), the leading global authority on workplace learning, is testament to our high standards in teacher development.

Our emphasis on professional development directly benefits our students’ learning and academic achievements by using international best practice to accelerate each student’s progress. Every Nord Anglia teacher is committed to regular professional development, and as passionate advocates for lifelong learning and personal growth, they are inspirational role models for our students.

At the centre of our programme is Nord Anglia University (NAU), the home of professional learning for our family of 66 schools. It gives our teachers direct access to online learning opportunities, the latest research and resources and professional learning communities where 9,000 Nord Anglia teachers worldwide share international best practice. Teachers in our growing family of bilingual schools also benefit from our China Bilingual Academy which extends the support available through NAU with resources, discussion and courses tailored to our innovative model and provided in both English and Chinese.

Nord Anglia’s education team work closely with each school to create an annual programme of on-campus training events tailored to the specific needs of its community, including regional events which bring together our bilingual teachers across China. Teachers also have the opportunity to participate in Nord Anglia’s highly respected in-house leadership programmes which nurture the school leaders of tomorrow.   

We also offer exciting opportunities to learn on-campus in the US with our global partners, giving our teachers access to some of the finest minds and most innovative approaches in their field. Our collaborations with The Juilliard School and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology provide unparalleled professional development in K-12 performing arts and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and maths) education. Exclusive to Nord Anglia Education, our teachers also have the opportunity to study for a highly sought after Master’s Degree in International Education with Kings College London.

The high quality of teaching and learning in our China Bilingual schools is a cornerstone of our reputation. Our world-leading professional development programmes ensure that we attract, develop and retain the world’s best teachers to inspire our students to achieve more than they ever thought possible.
