INSET & professional development

Achieve a more effective school library through training and development opportunities for teachers, librarians, teaching assistants, volunteers, parents and governors.

Experienced SLS library advisers provide:

school-based training for your staff, governors and parents
input for non-pupil days and Learning Community meetings

We also run central courses and events focused on what teachers and librarians tell us they want.
