offered time to reflect on their own practices and next steps for their leadership of professional learning and for their own organisation to improve pupil outcomes.

Is supporting teachers to develop their practice a central part of your leadership role? Are you looking for ways to achieve sustained change in relation to a school priority? This

programme provides an opportunity to ‘trial and test’ a coaching approach to shifting teacher practice and reflect on and refine your strategies so that you can facilitate improved

teaching and learning.

Are you a new head of department, subject leader, phase or team leader, head of year or cross curricular leader? Or are you thinking of applying for your first leadership role? Then this is

the programme for you. Suitable for teaching or support staff, this programme will help you develop your leadership skills and develop strategies to enable you to lead and manage a

team and improve teaching and learning.

will ensure that participants are well resourced to support others.

Thinking about teaching as a career? Find out about the different routes and the opportunities available on this half day for TAs. Content covers routes, application, finance and how to

improve your chances of success.

Our preparation for assessment course is delivered in line with the national Code of Practice for HLTA, developed by the HLTA National Assessment Partnership. This requires the

equivalent of three days of preparation. Our programme includes two days of face to face delivery with the equivalent of one day in between for the writing of the tasks and online

support. We fully explain the requirements of the HLTA standards and the HLTA assessment and guidance is provided on completing the written tasks.

This two day programme is spread over two terms. The standards are explored with examples of good practice shared and developed through tutor input, video analysis and group

activity. Participants set targets with the tutor, based on the Standards, to work on between the two sessions. A needs analysis tool is provided to support individuals to gauge readiness

for HLTA assessment if this is their chosen route.

This programme is for HLTAs who would like to extend their professional development. It includes two and a half days of face-to-face workshops to learn about different leadership

styles, how to motivate individuals and teams and communicate effectively as leaders to reach school goals.

Bespoke support and development The Newham Professional Development Partnership has been working closely with heads and senior leaders in several Newham schools to design bespoke professional development opportunities tailored specifically to address school priorities. Innovative and flexible programmes have been developed which draw on latest research into what makes great professional development. Examples of these exciting and innovative programmes include: Making a difference through Action Research (2012-2013) - St Luke’s School This programme was designed to provide all teachers with an opportunity to further develop as reflective practitioners. Teachers were supported to develop their own enquiry questions designed to improve children’s learning. For example asking questions such as

‘How can I create rapid and sustained progress for lower attaining children in maths?’

‘What strategies are most effective in enabling children to make progress in writing?’ The programme combines enquiry methods with impact evaluation so that staff can articulate and demonstrate the difference their research has made to their own practice and to pupil learning. Teachers have an opportunity to present their work for Masters Accreditation, should they wish to.

Making a difference through peer coaching using a narrative dialogue and coaching to support post-lesson dialogue - Calverton School This programme was designed to engage staff in coaching as a way of improving professional dialogue about learning and teaching. It also encouraged staff to be more autonomous in identifying their professional development needs. The programme focused on a narrative approach to lesson observation using coaching as a model for post-lesson dialogue. Staff self-diagnosed an aspect of their own practice that they wished to improve / develop with a view to making a positive impact on pupils.

If you would like more information about how we can design a bespoke programme for your school, please contact us to discuss this further. Programmes can be designed to cover a range of themes. Here are some examples:-
