Founded by teachers in 2012, the Teacher Development Trust (TDT) is the national charity for effective professional development in schools and colleges. Their mission is powerful professional development in every school & college so that teachers thrive and children succeed. Their work is underpinned by the key principles of effective teacher professional development and learning. With support from CUREE, TES Global, and Durham University they have led the way in commissioning and publishing guidance around effective CPD, including the Developing Great Teaching report in 2015, which underpinned the development of the Department of Education’s Standard for Teachers’ Professional Development in 2016. They have since published and supported work on quality CPD, school culture and improvement independently and with Wellcome, NAHT, NFER, Sheffield Hallam and the Chartered College of Teaching.
