The Stour Academy Trust kicked off the new academic year with a grand Teaching Staff Development Day, hosted for the second time at the iconic Spitfire Ground in Canterbury.
In a refreshing change from the typical training sessions, over two hundred educators gathered, not to be overloaded with new training, but to collaborate and build lasting professional relationships. The day was filled with laughter, networking, and sharing of best practices amongst the educators.

The event was enriched by the words of the Keynote speaker, Diana Osagie. She took the stage to underscore the transformative role of education and the unwavering guidance that educators can offer to the students. Her emphasis was on celebrating the impact and tenacity of educators, reminding the attendees of the crucial role they play in shaping the future of young minds.
This initiative by The Stour Academy Trust marks a significant shift in how teacher development days are perceived, placing value on motivation, celebration, and reflection over rote training.
