Yeah, I'm trying to get some teachers / assistants through one at the moment. It's ok to quote that £95 figure, but then add on cost of supply cover for the class for the day, bumps it up a fair whack making some schools reluctant. It maybe that's just an excuse.
Then there's the staff who say they'd like to do something like that, but don't return call offering them the chance.
Those who go will get lots from it, but without further support mightn't deliver that all important first session.
If it's going on the curriculum at all schools - as per topic - it needs to be covered as mandatory cpd for a couple of staff, so at no additional cost to school budget. That or money to bring in external providers ringfenced in the school budgets.
