Verita International School Will Organize Mantle of the Expert, 2nd edition - Training for Teachers

In a bid to reshape the landscape of education and inspire a fresh approach to learning, Verita International School has announced the second edition of Mantle of the Expert (MoE) – Training for Teachers. Slated for November 21-22, 2023, this unique event, hosted at the Verita campus in Bucharest, promises an immersive experience for educators seeking to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

The two-day training will be led by the dynamic duo of British trainers, Richard Kieran and Luke Abbott. Unlike traditional teacher development programs, MoE takes a creative and collaborative leap into the world of fiction. The objective is to immerse both teachers and students in a shared imaginary context, providing a deeper understanding of subjects while honing critical thinking skills.

Verita International School, a vanguard in innovative education, is spearheading this exclusive training opportunity. Aimed at both seasoned educators and those new to the Mantle of the Expert methodology, the event promises a transformative journey led by experienced British trainers. Kieran and Abbott bring a wealth of expertise in leading and nurturing teams, introducing an innovative educational method that turns learning into a captivating make-believe adventure.

For students, MoE sparks imagination, encourages divergent thinking, and creates a safe haven for intellectual exploration. It fosters confidence and ownership of learning. For teachers, it redefines curriculum delivery, tailors learning experiences to student interests, and builds robust classroom communities.

The training agenda includes in-class observations of MoE lessons catering to diverse age groups, from Reception to Year 6 (4-11 years old). Attendees will engage in debrief sessions following each lesson, providing a space for reflection on their observations. The two-day program encompasses two training sessions, four classroom observations, four debrief sessions, and an introduction to SEE Learning (Social Emotional and Ethical Learning).

Enthusiastic educators eager to embark on this transformative journey can secure their spot by completing the registration form. The registration fee is €480 per participant, with payment facilitated through bank transfer. The deadline for registration is November 20th, 2023.

Verita International School, a global leader in education, is dedicated to providing a dynamic and engaging learning environment for students of diverse backgrounds. Their mission is to cultivate curious, responsible, and compassionate global citizens through innovative and inquiry-based education, empowering students to be lifelong learners and positive contributors to the world.
