Professional Development

The School recognises the need for continued Professional development of the staff.  Each year a number of teachers attend various courses that will assist them in their classroom practise. It is expected that any member of staff who attends a course should disseminate the information gathered to the correct people in school.  In addition, there has been whole school In-service training from a guest speaker as well looking at specific areas of education and whole school issues.
