Cover Teachers: Continual Professional Development for supply teachers

Bristol City Centre

Continual Professional Development...

Courses provided have included First Aid, an Introduction to Interactive Whiteboard, Literacy, Numeracy, Mind Mapping, Brain Gym and Behaviour Management

In the past we have held a course titled 'Storytelling and Storymaking: A Creative Approach' led by Michael Loader, a popular children's storyteller, and this was very successful. It focused on developing stories from objects, explored ways of involving children in the storytelling process and offered a wealth of instant 'story related' ideas for the primary supply teacher
