Constructing Scenarios for the Future of Teaching in Wales

Constructing Scenarios for the Future of Teaching in Wales

The New Professionalism and the Future of Teaching project has devised a theoretical framework that allows stakeholders in education to construct a shared vision on what the teaching profession could look like in the future. This study in Wales seeks to anticipate and increase deeper, structured thinking about medium- and long-term scenarios for teacher professionalism and empowerment. Potential benefits for the system include long-term strategic thinking regarding the Welsh teacher workforce and finding solutions to issues that transcend the short-term. The results of the study point to mobilising community as a strength, building on professional learning and schools as learning organisations and introducing flexible pathways and diverse career opportunities as elements of specific importance in thinking about the possible future of the teaching profession in Wales.
