2 Continuing Professional Development at Northgate High School There is a wide range of different opportunities for staff at all stages in their personal professional development at Northgate High School. The formal, long-term programmes for teachers at particular stages in their career are shown by the right-hand column in the diagram. We currently run programmes for trainee teachers, NQTs, Recently Qualified Teachers (RQTs), aspiring Middle Leaders and Senior Leaders and aspiring Headteachers. The less formal, shorter-term opportunities for all teachers at any stage in their career are shown by the left-hand column in the diagram. The ideas shown represent the types of activities available and there will be others that arise throughout the year. The programme of CPD sessions planned for the year is shown in this booklet. It has been carefully linked the School Improvement Plan and Performance Management Objectives. Smaller Action Groups work gether develop practice related areas of the Northgate 5Rs, which then feed in Teaching and Learning Group meetings and PD INSET days share the groups findings.

8 Teaching and Learning at Northgate High School: Our Key Principles All teachers should... Take responsibility for improving their own professional development by: responding advice and feedback from colleagues planning collaboratively with colleagues and team teaching where possible All teachers should... Contribute the development of teaching and learning across the department/school by: taking opportunities share best practice with colleagues. Your CPD at Northgate Please make a date in your diary for the sessions that tie in with your own personal interests and performance management objectives this year. Further sessions may be added the programme during the year. If you would like contribute any of these sessions, please let Dale Banham, Deputy Headteacher, know. The procedure for arranging personal CPD is fill in the purple CPD Request and Evaluation form and return it along with your Gold form.
