​What Are They and Why Are They Important

There are a number of CPD courses that can help you in your development whilst working in a school. At Envision Education, we are very excited to be offering 14 CPD courses absolutely free of charge when you register with us for work (normally they are £144.50 if you purchased them separately).

These courses will enable you to learn more about policies and procedures within UK schools, help with your professional development, and you will also become more ‘employable’ with the schools that we work with.

Please note, we offer these courses once you are registered with us for work and once all of your vetting checks are completed with us.
