The Blueprint and Toolkit for School-Based Teacher Development was developed following the experience of a number of school-based teacher development programmes. Three sources were of particular importance:

- The Commonwealth of Learning is grateful to Dr Caroline Pontefract for permission to use elements of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) School-Based Teacher Development (SBTD) Programme.

- The Teacher Education in-Sub-Saharan Africa (TESSA) programme, one of the first major open educational resources (OER) for teacher education, is an important source of OER content that has been adapted for the Blueprint and Toolkit.

- The TESS-India programme, which built on the TESSA experience, has also been an important source, particularly for the Key Resources.
