| The following training courses are available for school staff as either full day packages or as twilight staff meeting sessions. The training has been most successful when divided into separate sessions. These sessions are planned to suit the timing of the school, with staff agreeing to take on small, manageable actions in between the sessions using an action planning approach. This allows the school to develop in the area of training identified. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Testimonials from school Foundation Stage managers
We are a team of twelve staff in a very large school. Our nursery is a 65F/T place, 130 children in total. The majority of staff are new to nursery with no early years experience. Anita was recommended to us and I sent a message to her asking for help and 'boy' did she do a brilliant job. All the staff without exception agreed that Anita's personality and her delivery were outstanding and staff could not wait for the next INSET, there was a 'buzz' in the nursery. We all now have a 'good' knowledge of Early Years and it's practice.
