Sharing Classrooms, Deepening Learning

SCDL is funded by The International Fund for Ireland (IFI) and managed by The Northern Ireland council for Integrated Education (NICIE). The project provides funded professional development for teachers working in shared classrooms as a result of Entitlement Framework collaboration with other schools.

SCDL aims to enhance teachers’ skills and confidence in using diversity to deepen learning and relationships at all levels in Area Learning Communities. Teachers who complete SCDL training will receive: an Exploring Skills in SCDL certificate and/or an Additional Facilitator Skills in SCDL certificate.

SCDL professional development has also been mapped to competencies for the National Standards in Headship PQHNI and GTCNI teacher competencies.
