We know museums and galleries can offer a lot to support in-service teacher training, and when it works, it’s brilliant. But what makes it brilliant? How do we deliver effective, successful teacher training programmes? We’ll look at what teachers what, the practical aspects of running teacher training (timings, marketing, delivery in person/online), and the impact on teaching through three case studies, with time to chat and discuss ideas.
