What does it take for i nstructional leaders at the middle tier to be successful? \nA key element of solving the teaching and learning crisis worldwide is better supporting teachers to deliver quality education. While it may be easy to think only of school- or high-level interventions\, there are key actors at the midd le tier of education systems who are uniquely effective in providing this support.\nCelebrating the launch of a new research report from IIEP and ED T\, Leading teaching and learning together: the role of the middle tier\, the webinars will explore the role of a critical but too often neglected s et of actors: those working at the ‘middle’ of education systems\, suc h as district education officers\, network facilitators\, supervisors or t eacher mentors. Together\, these actors can contribute to improve the qual ity of education\, by acting as mediators of new policies to the frontline and instructional leaders who work across schools to support the improvem ent of teaching and learning. The webinar will highlight promising practic es for policymakers globally and bring key thought leaders into conversati on with country experts and middle-tier leaders.\nWhen:\n\n Part 1: Lesson s learned: How can the middle tier improve teaching and learning?\n21-Febr uary 2023:9:30 – 11:00 GMT (check your time zone)\n Part 2: From policy to implementation: What does it take for instructional leaders at the midd le tier to be successful?\n23 February 2023: 13:30 – 15:00 GMT (check yo ur time zone)\n\nPart 1 - Register here\nLessons learned: How can the midd le tier improve teaching and learning?
