The British Council has produced a series of short evidence-based ‘How to’ guides for individuals and institutions who have a stake in designing and delivering professional development opportunities for English language teachers. These short guides provide a series of practical recommendations and a list of key associated research sources designed to inform the organisation of professional development programmes and interventions for practising English language teachers. They also serve as self-access guides for teachers who are enrolling on formal professional development programmes or pursuing self-directed professional learning.

This guide will support teacher educators working with teachers engaged in teaching English as a subject or teaching through the medium of English, providing support for a better understanding of approaches to inclusive education practice. While the focus is on English language teaching and learning communities, this ‘How to guide’ is also relevant for teachers of other subjects.
