Continuous Professional Development is integral to Yarrow Schools Alliance’s vision of excellence. Working together as an Alliance to identify need across our schools, each year we put together a programme of professional development that is relevant, robust and effective. Courses are delivered by Lancashire's Numeracy and Literacy teams who have a wealth of experience, both within the area and nationally and other renowned educational speakers. 

Currently, courses are free to core Alliance members and carry a nominal fee for satellite members. Courses are advertised both on the Alliance’s monthly newsletter and via our CPD offer email to Alliance Headteachers. If your school 

• Courses are either held at St George's CE Primary School, Chorley; Mossy Lea Community Primary School, Wrightington or on Zoom. We liaise with Headteachers each year as part of our feedback process and organise our CPD programme around their preferences. CPD training is focussed around a number of key, local needs.
• If you wish to take part in the training and are unsure if your school is eligible, ring our office on 01257 262323.

Each year, based on conversations with our Core Alliance Members.
