Global Teachers in Uganda

The 2008 Global Teachers programme in Uganda focuses on the contribution of experienced Scottish teachers to school improvement in Ugandan schools.

Their work in Africa provides a significant personal Professional Development experience, and enables the teacher to enhance teaching and learning of global citizenship back in their own Scottish classrooms.

Participation is supported through the LTS SCIPD study visit programme, in partnership with Link Community Development.

Two participants will describe their experience, the gains in Uganda and the benefits derived personally in terms of professional growth and at school in terms of citizenship and values education with their pupils.
