Made to Measure:

We can also provide ‘made to measure’ teaching sessions in your workplace. We are happy to come out to you and provide a session to meet your needs. In the past we have talked at school staff meetings and taken part in CPD training for a variety of professionals from Health, Social Care and Education. We are happy to be flexible about time and content of your sessions from spending half an hour showing how we work or answering questions to running longer, structured sessions as part of more broader courses.
