There is a lot of talk about treating teachers with respect and recognising them on par with other professionals. However, there are almost no opportunities for the best teachers to showcase what truly outstanding teaching actually looks like – and be given recognition for their professional skills. XSEED seeks to bridge this gap by providing a platform to find, nurture, and reward the best of our best teachers.
To do so, XSEED launched the XSEED Super Teacher Philippine Search, a first-of its- kind talent discovery program to find Philippine’s best of the best teaching professionals. This four week-long competitive search was open to over 1,000 XSEED teachers across the country. Hundreds of XSEED teachers participated in the search. They went through four rounds of evaluation by a jury, leading to a grand finale on Friday, Sept 20, 2019 during the XSEED Education Conference in Manila, NCR.
XSEED Conference this year was special. Apart from the usual stirring sessions and exciting conversations, it showcased some great professional teachers LIVE in front of the most influential education leaders. We rewarded them with international-standard skill-building and career development opportunities.
