On Thursday, 20 November 2025, the teachers of Al Siddiq International School took part in a special training session conducted by Alston Publishing. The training was held in the Headteacher’s Office and attended by teachers from various levels. This programme marked an important step in strengthening teaching quality and ensuring that educators continue to grow in line with curricular demands and pupils’ learning needs.
Led directly by the team from Alston Publishing, the training aimed to provide professional guidance to teachers in understanding and optimising the use of textbooks and learning materials published by Alston. With well-structured content, the session equipped teachers with deeper insights into modern teaching strategies that align with the learning materials provided.
Throughout the session, participants received explanations on textbook structure, learning flow, and effective ways to deliver material in the classroom. The Alston team also demonstrated examples of activity-based learning methods that help boost pupils’ motivation and engagement. Teachers were invited to discuss real classroom challenges and explore practical solutions that could be implemented in daily teaching.
Beyond theory, the training included practical activities and case studies. Teachers were given the opportunity to design short lesson plans, practise delivering material, and receive direct feedback from the instructors. The discussions were lively and productive, reflecting the teachers’ enthusiasm for continuously developing their professional skills.
Through this training, Al Siddiq International School reaffirmed its commitment to supporting the improvement of teacher competency. The collaboration with Alston Publishing is expected to further strengthen learning quality, create more interactive classroom environments, and enhance pupils’ learning experiences.
The training held on 20 November 2025 not only provided fresh insights but also motivated teachers to innovate in their teaching methods. With continued support from various partners, including professional publishers like Alston, Al Siddiq International School remains confident in its mission to deliver excellent and relevant education for today’s learners.
