House of Lords written question – answered am ar 9 Gorffennaf 2009.
The Earl of Listowel
Crossbench
To ask Her Majesty's Government what place child development and behaviour management will have in the new post post-graduate certificate in education qualification.
Baroness Morgan of Drefelin
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Children, Young People and Families), Department for Children, Schools and Families, Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Children, Schools and Families) (Children, Young People and Families)
One of the four key content areas of the Masters in Teaching and Learning (MTL) includes coverage of child development and behaviour management. All participants will be required to cover the four content areas during the course of their MTL. These are set out in the MTL National Framework, which is the basis on which MTL providers are developing their MTL programmes. The MTL National Framework can be viewed at www.tda.gov.uk/mtl . As the MTL is a practice-based qualification, we would expect to see teachers emerging from the programme with well developed knowledge, skills and understanding relating to child development and behaviour management.
