Masters in Teaching and Learning (MTL)

The Masters in Teaching and Learning (MTL) is a national programme for serving teachers funded by the Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA) .

The MTL combines the academic rigour of a traditional Master´s degree with hands-on, classroom-based learning. It is focused on children and young people and on applying evidence and educational theory to real-life situations. The programme can be personalised to reflect both individual and school priorities and is designed to help teachers gain the knowledge and skills they need to have a real impact in the classroom. In particular, it will help you to develop an open and questioning mindset through an enquiry and practice-based approach which will enable you to embrace change, challenge and opportunity.

N.B. This programme was available to new Heads of Departments and TLR holders in National Challenge Schools or Schools facing Challenging Circumstances. Funding has since been withdrawn for any future cohorts. Therefore, we are now not recruiting to the MTL.
