CPD & Training
We have created a range of explanatory videos designed to upskill staff in effective vocabulary instruction. Drawing from our years of experience in the classroom, we have carefully selected what staff need to know and curated sessions that last between 5 and 20 minutes. This whole-staff professional development will set you on a journey to ensure that vocabulary is taught effectively across all disciplines.
Similarly, our ‘no-fuss’ training videos will give staff the confidence to deliver the scheme effectively and with ease.
This package includes carefully designed training and CPD to ensure that you can implement Scode Vocabulary effectively in your school/college.
All of our training and CPD is accessed via the members pages of our website.
