Application

Our school would like to undertake this whole-school training because…

We will be looking to build the learning and practice into our School Development Plan and Policies in the following ways…

Numbers of current CIN, CP, PLAC, CLA

Agreement

• Our Head Teacher will take part in a pre and post training consultation/audit so that training can be matched well to the school and embedded into practice
  
• All members of the school staff will attend all aspects of the training. (Where there is any online learning aspect the Head Teacher will encourage staff to participate in this additional feature)
  
• All staff in our school will complete baselines/evaluations in a timely way on request to support the gathering of impact data
  
• Our school will allow Shropshire VS to work jointly with us through the project eg to attend the consultation/audit meetings - and training sessions if delivered by an external provider
  
• Shropshire VS reserve the right to seek the cost of the course back from the school if our school is unable to fulfil the above terms (we wish to ensure that the PP+ for Shropshire CLA is used to good effect)
