Heavy demand for Code and Standards workshops

Teacher demand for support in using Code and Standards in practice and appraisal is such that Education Council workshops booked out within hours of being announced.

The Education Council organised workshops across New Zealand to help teachers implement the framework, in response to demand. But within hours of workshop being announced, they were booked out – despite the cost ($45 full day, $25 half day).

The council says more workshops will be announced in November for 2018. Details can  be found on the Education Council website.
