In the coming year use will be made of outside
agencies to provide Staff Development and Training opportunities.
This will be through consultancy and school based training. Additional
development opportunities are offered via Teaching Partnerships
and Team Training, with Curriculum Co-ordinators acting as facilitators.
The number of off site courses applied for
has been specifically focused, and are given on the attached sheet.
All requests for training, via Team Co-ordinators
and Curriculum Co-ordinators have been met as far as possible,
as have those highlighted by the Curriculum Audit and implicated
in the School Development Plan Initiatives. The more individual
training requests will be met by partnerships within the school,
but, on the whole, school based training has been specifically
geared to meet our objectives. Once we have accepted the tenders
put in by the facilitators, a full programme of training will
be published. This will have implications for the whole staff
conference, staff INSETS, Curriculum Co-ordinators meetings, and
additional working groups. Training for associate staff is fully
integrated into the programme.
Staff attending off site courses have to ensure that:
Last year NIAS ran additional courses during
the year that were not published in the prospectus. These can
only be attended if the
1. the above criteria are met
2. they do not impact on staff meetings
3. we are still within the budget set for such
courses ( check with Ros )
At this point I am in a position to
list the NIAS courses that have been applied for.
