Professional learning for rural, regional and remote teachers

About

Teaching in a rural, regional or remote area is highly rewarding, but teachers in these areas face complex challenges that are unique to, or exacerbated by, their geographical location. This can include difficulty in accessing professional learning. 

AITSL conducted stakeholder consultation and a targeted survey focusing on teachers’ experiences. This Spotlight research report looks at the findings of the research.

This Spotlight contains information on:

• Rural, regional and remote schools
• Professional learning experiences of rural, regional and remote teachers
• Considerations for selecting professional learning
• Professional learning in rural, regional and remote schools
• The role of systems, sectors and providers.
