How LEAD Academy’s teacher training equips Indian educators to be 21st century-ready

The world of education is evolving even faster than ever before, thanks to strides in EdTech and the integration of technology. As a result, teachers need to go above and beyond, when it comes to teaching, to adapt to the constantly changing teaching and learning environment. Better-equipped teachers produce well-rounded students. Introducing LEAD Academy, where teacher training is an intrinsic part of the move to a holistic learning journey.

The LEAD Academy teacher training strategy is a multi-pronged approach to training teachers in our partner schools. A 360° approach to training, it starts by building in teachers the innate motivation to teach. The proposed teacher transformation programme by LEAD Academy promises training and education from all angles to target the issues that the conventional training approach fails to address.

The problem with traditional teacher training

The current teacher training system is problematic in its approach. This method of training teachers has issues baked-in, from the onset, resulting in teachers who may not have the tools necessary to educate students in the 21st century.

• No motivation offered

In a traditional teacher training setup, teachers are often not given enough motivation or benefits that drive them to teach. As a result, this creates teachers that are not well-invested in their training.

• Difficult courses

Difficult and complex courses frustrate teachers trying to learn and train further. Consequently, this leads to frustration and a drop in learning levels.

• No single-subject expertise 

In a bid to make teachers Jacks-of-all-trades, training programmes do not help them focus on a single subject of expertise. They opt to make teachers know a little about a vast range of subjects, instead of being subject experts.

How LEAD Academy Teacher Training solves these problems

Is there a better way to equip Indian teachers with the training tools they need for 21st-century teaching? LEAD Academy is poised to offer exceptional and accessible teacher training to educators.

LEAD Academy is the result of rigorous testing and education compliant standards. Set to train both current LEAD educators and aspiring LEAD teachers, the programme promises exceptional teacher training for the digitally empowered learning needs of today’s schools.
