Please note: this event is a Red Kite Learning Trust staff training day. While some workshops will be specific to Red Kite Learning Trust (and are therefore not listed), the majority of sessions are designed to offer high-quality professional development. We believe this is a valuable CPD opportunity for operational staff and warmly encourage colleagues from other schools to attend. All participants will be made to feel welcome and included throughout the day.
