The Teaching and Learning Programme, which incorporates the Subject Learning Coaches programme, is a unique approach for organisations from across the learning and skills sector to transform teaching, training and learning.

Already, it is increasing learner motivation, improving retention, enhancing success and boosting teacher and trainer morale. Such impact is occurring in both leading-edge organisations and those with further to travel.

At the heart of the programme is a key role – Subject Learning Coach – the pivotal agent for change who, with the support of managers, releases the potential of existing staff to embed elements of the programme.

The programme offers three enablers designed to work in concert, creating a clear impact where it matters most - supporting you to deliver learner success. The three enablers are: the teaching and learning resources; subject coaching networks, peer and community activities and the Professional Training Programme for Subject Learning Coaches.

This is an opportunity for teachers and trainers to take part in an innovative, national professional coaching programme that will make a real difference to teaching, training and learning in your organisation. The new flexible delivery model offers:

• high quality training, flexibility and pathways tailored according to your organisation's needs
• transformational impact on teaching, training and learning
• the opportunity to highlight your organisation's commitment to quality improvement
• sustainable professional development designed to grow within the organisation and support the new CPD legislation
• a new opportunity for managers to nominate graduate SLCs to lead and develop a powerful and flexible in-house SLC training programme; this will enable you to develop coaching approaches across the entire curriculum
• elective modules for SLCs who have completed their basic training to support CPD in e-learning, extended approaches to teaching, training and learning, coaching skills practice and coaching for high performing subject teams.
