York's St Peter's School has launched a Centre of Excellence for Teaching and Learning to improve teaching practice.

St Peter's School in York has launched a Centre of Excellence for Teaching and Learning (CETL). The private school, which traces its history back almost 1,400 years, unveiled the new facility to improve its teaching and learning experiences and ensure it remains at the forefront of educational innovation.

Antonia Clarke, who will lead the centre and has 30 years of experience in senior teaching roles at St Peter's, said the CETL was created to respond to major questions facing education today. These include the impact of artificial intelligence on learning, how schools can cultivate character and wellbeing, and how to prepare young people for a rapidly changing world.

The centre's mission is to empower teachers as researchers, innovators and thought leaders by connecting research to everyday classroom practice. It will embed a culture of enquiry across the school and provide staff access to leading educational research. Ms Clarke said the centre will collaborate with leading academic institutions and educational partners to advance teaching and learning.
