4. • INSET for 2013-4

• Ideally needs-based, ground-up teachmeet style
• Proposed CPD cycle:
• Staff identify training needs & wants in appraisal meetings
• BlueSky report run to construct training plan
• Experts identified through audit, write training materials
• INSET program written on BlueSky
• Staff create CPD activities on these INSET courses
• All INSET evaluated through BlueSky to improve process
• As always, please let me know what you think of this

5. Standards Audit
We all need to revisit our standards audit to help
deliver personal & school improvement.
• To show personal progress across this academic year
• Highlight areas for development and areas of strength
• Add evidence to show progress
• Feeds into objective planning – one must be audit-based
(professional development target)
• Activity for rest of today – please use the next 45
minutes to re-visit your audit
• I will be in room 9 if you need any help or have any
questions for the remainder of the day
