Key Messages
Staff development needs to be meaningful and have a direct impact on pupils’ learning.
Once staff development has been delivered ensure that staff can implement and apply what they have learned.
Quantifiable data is not sufficient. There is a need to triangulate.
Cultural changes take time.
Pupils’ views on how they like to learn can inform areas for future staff training.
