Video-conferencing

Each school is being offered professional development training specifically in videoconferencing techniques.Teachers are invited to join dedicated video conference sessions where they are introduced to other teachers and have an opportunity to discuss the structure and content of the programme. All related technical requirements are then taken care of by the Face to Faith team.

Regular training takes place throughout the programme to support schools and to allow teachers to reflect on their teaching to date.
