At the Inspire Partnership we are committed to transforming pupil’s lives through collaboration. Professor Viviane Robinson’s research (2011) illustrated that the most effective way that leaders can improve outcomes for children and young people is to focus on professional development. Therefore, a key strand of our Trust work is to develop a highly effective programme of opportunities for colleagues to learn together. Having access to the very best professional development will ensure everyone can maintain the highest quality of practice in their area.
|
| As well as improving pupil outcomes, we also know that engagement quality in CPD is a great motivator for staff and research exemplifies that investment in support and development for all staff will improve retention rates and support future recruitment. Our colleagues within the Trust have the opportunity to contribute to the whole Trust through strategy and networking groups with the dual impact of positively influencing their work and providing purpose to their work beyond their own school community. |
"If we create a culture where every teacher believes they need to improve, not because they are not good enough but because they can be even better, there is no limit to what we can achieve"- Dylan Williams |
