CPD on a budget

Al Kingsley, Henry Platten and Mark Anderson chat about CPD for teachers in the face of school budget cuts.

What can schools and teachers do to maintain continued professional development when there's no spare money for it in the budget? Quite a bit, as it happens: from staff being given the time to share experiences with each other, inviting staff from other schools to discuss certain topics, or networking and asking questions on social media - schools can ensure that teachers are kept in the loop about latest developments in their education specialism or are given the opportunity to share experiences in a non-pressured environment.
