Webinars and Consultations
Our Tailored Consultations
Determining the best instructional approaches for your teaching team and students can be challenging, but our tailored professional development sessions simplify this process.
We engage with your team to explore various approaches and programs, discussing effective implementation in your school setting. Before the sessions, we collect information about your school to customise our options to meet your specific goals.
Our professional development is flexible, available in person at your school or online, with session lengths ranging from 60 minutes to a full day.
Sessions can include activities like:
- unpacking evidence
- reviewing case studies of similar schools
- investigating programs
- studying forms of implementation
- Q&A sessions.
Our consultants are happy to tailor a session to your needs.
