EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP IN ACTION
Professional learning is embedded into the ethos of HKA. Since our founding, the community has remained committed to providing rich, robust and dynamic learning opportunities for faculty and staff. In addition to designated collaborative planning time in teaching teams, faculty timetables include weekly professional development afternoons that are Mission aligned, connected to our strategic priorities and keep us at the forefront of international education. Recognised as a professional learning hub, we host a number of workshops and conferences each year.
HKA faculty and staff engage in a wide range of internal and external opportunities to enhance their professional expertise, including:
- Presenting at local, regional and global conferences
- Leading workshops and professional conversations
- Contributing to publications
- Participating in internationally-recognised seminars
- Pursuing postgraduate degrees and certifications
- Conducting action research
