See the training section of West Sussex Services for Schools for what we already deliver centrally. We can offer all of our listed central training courses to whole school teams on site, but can also create bespoke packages to meet your contextual areas of need.
We're very happy to deliver virtual sessions to whole-school teams if you prefer to work in this way, though also enjoy the face to face interaction that on-site delivery facilitates.
