Succesful professional development for teachers is centered on student learning and practical skills for classroom teaching. In high performing education systems teachers-in-training engage in real-life simulations, peer learning and internships with expert teachers in schools. These teachers learn how to improve and adapt their teaching to suit the individual needs and capabilities of each student in their classroom.
The Trump Foundation aims to help prepare teachers for student-centered teaching. The foundation collaborates with teacher training institutions to initiate the development of content, tools and personnel needed in order to facilitate this expertise.
