Mike Hughes NAPD “Magenta Principles” Workshops 2015 – 2016

NAPD, in an initiative to enhance the quality of Learning and Teaching in our schools, has invited Mike Hughes to conduct a programme of workshops in this academic year.

Focus:

  Exploring practical strategies for teachers to help improve Learning and Teaching in the classroom
 Exploring Practical strategies for school leaders to develop Learning and Teaching in their school

Fifteen schools (almost full!!) will participate at each location and the programme will comprise 3 workshops.

 Places will be allocated on a first-come basis.

To register: contact Barry O’Callaghan – leading4learning@napd.ie

Venues/dates: Kilkenny

Workshop 1 Thu 5 November 2015
Workshop 2 Thu 28 January 2016
Workshop 3  Thu 14 April 2016

Each school should send the same 3 to 4 participants to all workshops: Principal and/or Deputy plus 2 to 3 internal champions of learning.

Teachers will be expected to take ideas explored at workshops back to their schools and be willing to share implementation experiences at subsequent workshops.

Workshops will begin at 9:00am and finish at 1:30pm, followed by light lunch.

The total cost per school for the programme is €500, payable to NAPD.

The programme will be based on Mike’s recently published “Magenta Principles” which is available from Outside the Box Learning in Naas (www.otb.ie). All participants will be required to have a copy of the book.
