Staff Learning and Development

The Loddon School is fully committed to the development and training of staff, to ensure a continued positive quality of life for the children and young people who attend the school, particularly with reference to autism, positive approaches and personalised learning.

Staff are provided with the relevant training and development opportunities to enable them to become confident, competent and informed members of staff.
 
The school ensures that staff attend the courses outlined in the Loddon School’s internal training programme.


Learning events are classified into several categories:

  • Orientation Day and 4-day induction training for all staff members.
  • A mandatory training path for new staff members to undertake.
  • Team learning events where teams who work together (school and residential) learn, together, to ensure a consistent approach for pupils across the school. Team learning events focus on the needs of specific pupils and the expertise required by staff to best meet those needs. Staff also attend additional learning events to update their skills to ensure legal requirements are met.
  • Specific learning support generated by career path or personal development profile and requirements
  • Regular supervision of staff
The Loddon School’s rolling learning programme for staff is constantly under development to increase the staff’s knowledge and skills, which ultimately benefits the children and young people.

Each employee has their own record of learning and the responsibility for maintaining these will be the employee and the training department.
