PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

An important factor affecting the quality of a learner’s learning experience is the quality of teaching and learning within a school. Thus the professional development of staff needs to be transformational in nature enabling the development of the thinking and practice of teachers continually. A wide variety of continuous professional development courses are offered each term for teachers and administrative staff from pre- school through to high school. While these are typically run as per calendar at the College, invitations for customised school workshops are most welcome. The College is a licensed Cambridge Professional Development Centre.

CERTIFICATE IN CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

As an introduction to Christian Education, the course intends to equip, develop and empower Christian teachers to play their role in transforming the lives of the pupils under their care through instilling behavioural changes and moral values that are based on Biblical principles. The course is run over a year with 6 modules offered periodically.

Gateway College has been and continues to be the brightest light in my life, showing me the potential I possess and my flaws clearly. I'm grateful to be learning in a Christian environment that leaves me with a different perspective of life.

A great institution in that students are guided all the way in what they want to achieve as students and subsequently as teachers. A truly good and spiritual experience when you are at Gateway Christian Training College.

GCTC for me has been a journey of growth. I've learnt things about myself that I did not know……I've realised that I am more capable than I ever believed myself to be. I've been stretched and encouraged, I've learnt life lessons that I will take with me even after my time at college through different lectures, lecturers and my peers.
