CPD Training
This is a two-part training course to apply the theory and practice of Precision Teaching (PT) as a formative assessment strategy to enhance numeracy and handwriting / spelling skills. There is an expectation that all delegates will undertake an assignment using the PT approach between sessions 1 and 2.
This session will help all staff to recognise how to support an EAL learner from the early years through to secondary school. We will explore the differences between EAL and SEN, the factors impacting language development and practical recommendations to use in the classroom.

What is mindfulness? Does it have a research base? is it worth considering, and who and how can it help in the school environment?
To develop class teacher’s knowledge of the current context / ‘state of play’ in terms of mental health and its relationship to ‘exam stress’. To share proactive practice ideas across school contexts for supporting children and young people in addressing these concerns.
Staff will have an increased awareness of the importance of a positive diet for children and young people and what we can do to support pupils and their families to overcome ‘food problems’ that may occur. Participants will consider how best they are able to work with families to promote better eating and when they may need to escalate concerns for serious issues surrounding eating for children and adolescents.
