DCSF 
Teachers' International Professional Development
'Understanding ourselves better by studying others...'
The DCSF Teachers' International Professional Development (TIPD) programme provides opportunities for teachers to experience best practice in international education by participating in short-term study visits to other countries. Since the programme was launched in 2000, thousands of teachers have benefited from the annual £3 million in funding, visiting schools in over 50 countries across the world, as far afield as South Africa and Singapore.
