Training & Professional Development
The single biggest in-school factor in pupil outcomes is the quality of teaching, leadership, and support that surrounds every child. That quality…
ExploreTrust-Wide Professional Development Programme
A multi-academy trust is more than the sum of its schools. Done well, a trust can develop staff, share expertise, and raise standards across every school at once. But that takes a coherent, trust-wide approach to professional development. This programme helps trusts build and deliver CPD that works across all their schools.
Below, we explain what our trust-wide professional development programme involves, and how it helps you develop staff across your whole trust.
What Is Trust-Wide Professional Development Programme?
It’s a tailored professional development programme designed for multi-academy trusts. We work with you to build a coherent CPD offer that spans your schools, develops staff at every level, and drives consistent improvement, delivered in person or through an online platform so every school can access it.
We shape it around your trust’s priorities and structure, so it strengthens shared practice while respecting the context of each individual school.
Who Is This Training For?
It’s designed for multi-academy trusts of any size, and for groups of schools working in partnership. It suits trust leaders, school improvement teams, and central CPD leads. It develops staff at every level, from early career teachers to senior leaders, across all your schools.
Many trusts ask for it to build a shared professional development strategy, raise standards consistently, or make the most of expertise across their schools.
