At South Central TSH we are thrilled to signpost you to a range of additional staff CPD courses and webinars.
Our CPD will be delivered by us, through Sigma Training School (as both South Central TSH and Sigma Training School are part of Delta Education Trust using nationally and internationally renowned guest speakers. We will also offer CPD from our Strategic Partners. All our CPD courses can be found on our Sigma Training School CPD page.
The Regional Education Partnership Board for Dorset, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole has identified the following priorities for CPD
- Trauma-Informed Approaches for Everyone’s Wellbeing
- Making the Difference for Disadvantaged Pupils
- Understanding and Meeting the Needs of Pupils with SEND
We are describing these as ‘additional CPD’ as they are additional to the DfE Golden Thread of Initial Teacher Training, Early Career Framework and National Professional Qualifications.

Our CPD priorities are reflected in the courses available to book using the links below.
