School CPD & INSET
Teachers want to learn too!
The Education sector is inherently reflective and always seeking ways to improve teaching practices. The constant striving to improve students’ learning outcomes requires teachers and school support staff to undergo regular training and professional development.
Teacher CPD is also vital for those ambitious community members that are looking to develop their careers and broaden their skill set beyond the classroom. We have some fantastic trainers listed here. Take a look at what is on offer and book your CPD through School Workshop Directory.
