WHATS NEW?

Training School

We are currently developing our training provision for our non-teaching staff to enhance their role and progression within the academy. In 2009 we plan to offer a range of support worker in schools (SWIS) qualifications

Ideally, we would like to engage with providers and base training for these qualifications in the academy thus allow our staff and hopefully staff in local schools to access this training if desired.

Another exciting development on the horizon is linking up with our local HEI’s Social Care departments to offer placements for trainee social workers within the academy.  This looks to be a really interesting scheme which will support the university, the student and the academy.

Our involvement with TEEP is central to the teaching and learning ethos of the academy and we are now keen to offer our support to develop this training model in other areas and institutions.  The Deputy Principal Phil Latham and the Assistant Principal for Training and Development Lynn James are currently examining ways to do this.
