Manor Teaching School Hub has partnered with Ambition Institute, to deliver the complete range of NPQs.
The programmes are blended, maximising your time with virtual clinics throughout the duration of the programme but also by bringing you and your peers together for face to face conference and clinic sessions.
You will have access to Ambition’s excellent virtual learning system, Steplab, to work through short “Learn” and “Apply” learning activities, all underpinned by the best available educational research. Our facilitators are local leaders with highly relevant school experience and great facilitation skills to guide you through the accredited material.
