Excellent staff development is at the heart of our practice at Walthamstow School for Girls.  We know that, quite simply, we must prioritise continuous professional development if we are going to nurture our staff and enable them to develop the skills and knowledge to maximise their impact on student learning and progress.

Our CPD is evidence-informed, both in its use of current educational research and in terms of our use of internal evidence used to shape our CPD priorities and courses for the academic year.   Our practice is shaped by the DfE CPD Standards, including our commitment to systems which allow us to measure how we have improved and evaluated student outcomes.
