We are thrilled to launch Excellence in Reception Teaching, a new Department for Education funded professional development programme for reception teachers.

Designed specifically for Reception, this course helps teachers deepen their understanding of early child development, strengthen classroom practice and use practical, evidence based approaches to support more children to achieve a good level of development.

For school leaders, it is a valuable opportunity to improve the quality of Reception teaching and strengthen the foundations of learning across your school.

For practitioners, it offers focused, specialist CPD that recognises the unique skill, care and expertise involved in teaching Reception well.

The programme covers:
🌱 Child development
🏫 Classroom practice and teaching
🤝 Effective partnerships
✨ Inclusive practice

Short, focused and practical, the programme takes a minimum of 20 hours over two school terms, combining flexible self study with live facilitated sessions that fit around busy school life.

Register now for the first intake in September
