Example from a primary school
In its CPD statement, North Ealing Primary School says that CPD:
- Promotes high morale and motivation among staff
- Aims to balance individual and school priorities
- Will primarily focus on improving standards and the quality of teaching and learning
It lists CPD activities for different school roles and governors. For example, support staff development activities include:
- Team building
- Exchange of ideas and advice on teaching and learning
- Observations of good practice
- Discussion on behaviour management and pastoral issues
- Collaborative planning
All support staff are encouraged to participate in the local authority CPD opportunities as part of their career progression, such as achieving national qualifications.
