School Federation -
practical skills workshops

What is this?
This is where a cluster of schools within a pyramid or district agree to come together for specific hands on CPD opportunities. How might it benefit my school / staff? Subject co-ordinators can network with colleagues from other schools to gain/share their developing skills in a chosen area. Where purchased tutors are recruited the costs are shared between partner schools. The workshops are focussed- allowing for the development of rigorous knowledge, skills and understanding. Please contact: Mel Harrison, if you are interested in finding out more. Tel: 01785 278263
