Training<br />

Training through a systematic, disciplined and measurable<br />

process is the essence of developing teacher capability. We<br />

are a training centered institution and also a learning<br />

organization that listens to teachers and Head Teachers in<br />

order to continuously improve teaching methodologies and<br />

training delivery media. In 2015-16, we are emphasizing<br />

motivation, for we believe that only a motivated teacher who<br />

has a passion to teach can inspire students, ignite their<br />

curiosity and launch them on the voyage of discovery of their<br />

own potential.<br />

involves the use of technology to support learning. In 2014,<br />

TCF developed a Learning Management System (LMS) with<br />

the aim to improve the quality of its teaching staff. The<br />

objective is twofold: competency testing to identify the<br />

strengths and weaknesses of teachers in their own subjects,<br />

and creating engaging e-content that will bridge the identified<br />

gaps in knowledge and skills.<br />

In addition to our annual structured training programs<br />

including the Principal’s Academy and the In-Service Training<br />

for all our faculty, the year involved digitizing training that can<br />

be available the year round for new and inexperienced faculty.<br />

The Assistant Education Manager (AEM) was another tier of<br />

our regional education team that came within the training<br />

ambit this year. These are the resources from whom our<br />

Principals draw their academic inspiration and guidance,<br />

and the need for their continuous development can hardly<br />

be overestimated.<br />

Learning Management System<br />

(LMS): Bright New Horizons<br />

TCF has entered the exciting world of Information and<br />

Communications Technology (ICT) for Education, which<br />

“The mediocre teacher tells. The good<br />

teacher explains. The superior teacher<br />

demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.”<br />
