Offering in-depth courses for teaching professionals seeking to deliver effective evidence-based instruction.
WHAT WE DO
Through modularised courses The Academy provides the opportunity for in-depth units of study across a broad range of subject content in the Science of Instruction, with an initial focus on Effective Instruction in Reading and Spelling and Positive Teaching and Learning.
Our courses expand educators’ knowledge and skills in evidence-based teaching, as well as focusing extensively on the application of best practice in the classroom.
Qualified professionals with deep knowledge, expertise and research credentials develop and present each module.
