CPD at Worth Primary School in Cheshire meets the needs of staff individually. Headteacher Peter Taylor says, 'One of the things we say in our organisation is: it doesn't matter what colour the cat is so long as it catches mice; it's one of my favourite sayings and I don't have a doctrinaire view of professional development. We deliver a targeted approach because we know everyone has different needs. So it's about finding out what they need and how to deliver it'. Through audits, performance coaching and performance management, whole-school and individual training needs are highlighted; once these needs are identified, training is given accordingly. In this programme we meet some of the staff on whom this method of CPD is having a positive effect.
