Peer Supervision Training
We are delighted to have won a DFE grant to develop and deliver peer supervision training to an appropriate member of every school and nursery/preschool team to equip them with the skills to deliver peer supervision to the DSL/DSL team. The role of the DSL is an emotionally challenging one and it is very important that our DSLs feel emotionally supported to enable them to carry out their work to the best of their ability. For more information please read the attached document
