We should do well to remember:
• CPD leadership operates at a number of levels
• The core purpose of CPD is to improve outcomes for
children not pleasure whims or personalities
• Focus on CPD opportunities using the experts inside the
school is a good resource to exploit
• Performance Management and the new professional
standards for teachers provide vehicles for developing
more effective CPD
• Support staff leaders and managers have standards and
need to be heard too
• Delegation is the name of the game
