In this engaging session, participants will learn how teacher and leadership efficacy and equity can make a significant difference to student learning. Teachers who report a higher sense of efficacy display greater effort and motivation and are more resilient across the span of their career. Collective efficacy means that teachers are more resilient and are able to acquire a teaching profile that is positive and persistent.
