teacThe last blog update for 2013...

CPD training During the Autumn term we ran two CPD days for our Level 4 Performing Diplomas. These events were really successful, one teacher said "The quality of this training for the cost was exceptional. I other training recently for £120 where they literally just read the books to us. I feel more valued as a teacher, and more supported in the field through the VLE." It is so positive to have feedback like this and we hope that any training that we run during 2014 will be just as appreciated. 

Helen O'Grady The last Drama teacher training session of 2013 happened on Sunday 8th December in Bolton for Helen O'Grady Principals and teachers. In total 9 teachers/principals (pictured right) were trained, they travelled from across, Cumbria and South Scotland and Lancashire. We are looking forward to all of these new academies delivering our qualifications from January 2014. Good luck Helen O'Grady North West!
