Bedford Staff Development Center

Our Focus

We support teacher learning through collaboration and the sharing of best practices.

Our Policy Board is made up of teachers, administrators, parents and community representatives. We meet every other month to evaluate and discuss professional learning needs and allocate resources so we can provide opportunities to colleagues in these areas:

• Encourage Policy Board membership from all BSDC schools

• Develop and offer exciting professional opportunities that meet the needs of teachers 

• Support the ongoing Professional Development School (PDS) initiative as it expands and evolves 

• Provide support, as needed, to the PDS Steering Committees 

• Provide ongoing guidance and direction in shaping the current Mentor Program for supporting new staff

• Continue to cultivate the practices and culture of the Policy Board that make it a vital source of information and support within our schools and community.
