Question
What data does the Welsh Government have on the usage of the professional learning resources section of the Welsh Government's Hwb website by education practitioners?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
As set out in the National Professional Learning Entitlement, we want all practitioners to have access to quality professional learning. As part of our journey to achieving this, the new professional learning area on Hwb launched in September 2023.
The new professional learning area aims to make it easier for education professionals to access and navigate professional learning provision to support their continued development.
Within the new Hwb area, practitioners can access professional learning from a range of providers. This includes the national Curriculum for Wales development programme, designed and delivered cross-regionally by the education consortia.
There have been positive levels of engagement with the new professional learning area, with over 18,000 users accessing it since October 1st.
The professional learning area is in Beta format. We are actively encouraging feedback from stakeholders to ensure the new area continues to develop to meet practitioners’ professional learning needs to enable them to deliver high standards and aspirations for all.
