Keeping abreast of the latest developments in teaching theory and practice helps teachers and support staff to deliver the best in the classroom. But as a supply teacher, you often miss out on the training that is available to your full-time colleagues. Our face-to-face and distance learning courses, run in conjunction with the Institute of Education and our own team of experts, give you access to high quality training, wherever you live - completely free of charge. To find out more about the current courses available in your area, simply contact your local branch or view our CPD events calendar.

Teacher Forums

Working on supply can sometimes feel quite solitary. You may find that working in a number of schools, often at short notice, does not always allow you to build up relationships with either full-time or other supply staff. At Teaching Personnel we believe that supply staff should not feel excluded from this incredibly important aspect of working life. We know that your professional development and peace of mind can be significantly boosted by having the opportunity to share your thoughts, ideas and experiences with other local supply staff in a friendly environment. To help you meet other supply staff your local branch consultants arrange regular, informal 'teacher forums' that are open to all of our registered supply staff. These events are informative, fun and designed to provide you with opportunities to interact with others in the same position as you.
