Staff training

block6

Law Primary and Dunbar Primary have both been successful in their applications for Erasmus+ funding which will be used to send members of staff on immersion courses over the next two years. We will be supporting other schools in the autumn term with bids for funding for future years.

 
We have also now set up a link with the Académie of Caen to enable school to school links (P1 classes prioritised) and future staff training opportunities. We are therefore looking for 13 primary schools initially to set up partnerships with schools in Cherbourg. More information has been sent to Head Teachers. Contact B. Murray for more information.
