Training Teacher Interns

Inanda Seminary contributes significantly to the training of teacher-interns in South Africa. We are a key partner in the Khanyisa Inanda Seminary Community Projects (KICP) intern programme which is based at Inanda Seminary, and have an intern accommodation block on campus.

Teacher development is a significant constraint when it comes to improving educational outcomes in South Africa. To raise the quality of teaching and learning. KICP aims to train and grow inspired, high-quality teachers from disadvantaged backgrounds through an internship programme. Intern teachers receive a bursary covering academic fees, study materials, living expenses, and a stipend. The programme also includes an academic support component to ensure success in their education courses.

All Inanda interns are mentored by senior teachers and attend professional development sessions along with the rest of the staff. Some are already in charge of their own classes. Their lessons are continuously observed and they are exposed to as much experience as possible.
