In addition to the Early Career Framework and range of specialist and leadership NPQs, we will also be offering a range of bespoke Continued Professional Development to meet the needs of teachers and leaders in our region.
Our CPD is evidence-informed, focussing on developing high quality teaching and leadership, targeted academic support, and wider school strategies. It is complementary to ITT, ECF and NPQ content and meets the Standards for Teachers’ Professional Development including:
A focus on improving and evaluating pupil outcomes
Underpinned by robust evidence and expertise
The inclusion of collaboration and expert challenge
Sustained over time
Research Schools aim to lead the way in the use of evidence-based practice, supporting the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), an independent charity, in their mission to break the link between family income and educational achievement and improve teaching practice and pupil outcomes. The Staffordshire Research School at John Taylor has been a member of the Research School Network since 2019 and is one of 28 Research Schools (and 10 Associate Research Schools) that make up the Research Schools Network. During this time, we have supported many teachers, leaders and support staff through our professional development offer and bespoke partnerships with schools, Trusts and Local Authorities from across the Midlands and beyond.

This CPD package provides ongoing assessment and evaluation for delegates in relation to their existing inclusive teaching practice, looking at lesson planning through an EAL learners’ lens to identify the scaffolding that is required within their curriculum for all learners to be able to achieve their potential.
Suitable for all Secondary and Middle School teachers
This session will be facilitated by Debbie Tremble one of the Staffordshire Research School Evidence Leads. Debbie has wealth of educational experience.
