This course will highlight with delegates a range of recently updated documents from the DfE and elsewhere which impact on school policies and procedures. It will consider the implications for school routines and how policies, procedures and practices might best be amended.
Aims of the course
It’s not always easy to know what has changed; sometimes it takes a while for changes to filter down to school level and schools may find themselves behind the curve. This course seeks to raise awareness of what’s new and enable delegates to consider how best to update documentation and practice.
