Prior to opening the Lower Junior School in August 2013, the Aga Khan Academy in Maputo will be offering a series of English language programmes. They will start in February 2013 and run until the end of March 2013.

The programmes are for children, aged between 4 and 8 years old, who wish to improve their English language ability prior to applying for admission to the Academy in August 2013. Throughout there will be a strong emphasis on communicative language development, but the programme will also include the development of reading and writing skills.

Dates for the programmes:

Programme 1 – 25 February to 1 March
Programme 2 – 18 Mar to 22 March
Programme 3 – 25 Mar to 29 March

The day will begin at 0900 and finish at 1500. We regret that spaces are limited to 20 children per week, so please register early. Note that children can only be registered for one programme during this time and admission will be subject to an interview with the Academic Director.

The programmes will be located in an existing building in Moztex, Matola, while the main Academy is being built on a site nearby.

For further information, please contact Lee Davis, Director of Academic Planning and Development (lee.davis@akdn.org).

Teacher Professional Development

Promoting excellence in teaching and learning, both on campus and more broadly, is a fundamental goal of the Aga Khan Academies. Each Academy has a Professional Development Centre (PDC), which strengthens the profession of teaching in the region by investing substantially in teachers’ professional development.

Developing strength in teaching

We identify and develop teachers of the highest quality who are committed both to the all-round development of young people and to their own professional growth as excellent teachers.

Our PDC supports excellence in teaching by promoting best practices in teaching and learning. We provide ongoing, collaborative training for Academy faculty as well as outreach programmes for teachers and head teachers from neighbouring government, private and not-for-profit schools.

Our faculty members also have the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues across the globe and to teach abroad within the Aga Khan Academies network.

Strengthening curriculum and community

Through our professional development provision, we help create a professional community of competent, well-resourced teachers.

These teachers will continue to support and collaborate with one another on materials development, by sharing best practices, and in establishing diverse academic, cultural and social projects.
