<p><strong>Who is this course for? </strong></p>
<p>Headteachers, SLTs and other school leaders who are involved in whole school management.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Background </strong></p>
<p>As school leaders you can get so busy running the day to day that there is no time to focus on strategic issues such as school improvement. In such situations, leaders tend to think of improvement when things go wrong - after inspection. When school improvement is only considered after a poor inspection outcome, all efforts are about addressing the issues identified during the inspection, and not about doing things better to benefit pupils. As a result, actions taken are usually short-term fixes that are driven by the short timeframe in which schools have to demonstrate that they have addressed issues identified during the inspection.</p>
<p>In order for meaningful improvement to take place, improvement should not only be planned when things go wrong. Plans must also be effective in order for them to have a chance being implemented otherwise they will end up getting dusty in some office cabinet.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>What will be covered?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>the link to self-evaluation</li>
<li>the role of staff</li>
<li>improving the quality of improvement actions</li>
<li>SMART actions</li>
<li>ensuring strict implementation of improvement plans</li>
<li>post inspection DfE action plans</li>
<li>identifying and celebrating improvements</li>

<p><strong>Background</strong></p>
<p>Research suggests that teachers ask between 300 and 400 questions a day. Imagine that &ndash; it comes to roughly 2 questions every minute! That is a lot of questions. But there is something more important than the number of questions we ask, it is why we ask those questions, what type of questions we ask, how we ask those questions and the quality of feedback we give to pupils. When used effectively, questioning is a useful teaching and learning strategy. During this workshop we will discuss how questioning can be used effectively to assess, challenge and stretch pupils progress.</p>

Our intention is to ensure our students leave us happy, confident and looking forward to years of riding a motorcycle on the road.

If I book a CBT test in Maidstone what would I be doing?
A CBT test consists of 5 elements labelled A to E. You will do these 5 elements in order throughout the day.
The DVSA have produced an excellent short video showing you the elements of a CBT. Here is the video and below it is the description of each of the elements.





Element A comprises of talk about clothing, safety helmet and equipment. This is also when your licence and eyesight will be checked and the aims of the course outlined. Make sure to bring your glasses or contact lenses if you wear them as you will need to read a registration plate at a distance of 20 metres. You will also learn:
Understanding the legal requirement to riding
Reinforcing your understanding of the Highway Code to a good level
Objectives of completing the CBT test
Understanding the importance of using good motorcycle equipment and clothing

Element B introduces you to the machine and its controls and includes:
Using the motorcycle stands to safely park your bike
Familiarity with the different motorcycle or scooter controls

Care will also be given in explaining about the radios and how not to get lost on the road
Element E is where you put all the above into practise by riding on the road. You will go out on the road with an instructor two at a time with a radio link. You must do at least two hours of road tuition, which must include doing a U-turn and emergency stop. At the outset the instructor will give plenty of guidance and help, but towards the end of the time on the road the instructor will be looking to see if you can get safely from one place to another without hurting yourself or anybody else.
How long does a CBT Test Take?
A CBT test can normally be completed in a day, but may take longer if you need more time to master the control of the motorcycle or moped. Knowing how to ride a bicycle will really help, so if you have not ridden one for a while it's a good thing to do before you take your CBT.
If you do not complete your CBT to the instructors satisfaction then you will be asked to come back on another day for additional training. If this happens do not be alarmed or upset, some people take longer to master control of a two wheeled vehicle than others, but we all get there in the end. The most important thing to remember is its for your safety. Your instructor will be thinking of your safety if they ask you to come back for additional training.
Is CBT a test or an evaluation?
Contrary to popular belief, a CBT is more of an evaluation than a test; your instructor will, throughout the day, observe your abilities and, if you complete the day to the required competency, you shall be awarded a pass certificate (professionally known as a DL196). A CBT certificate is valid for two years and once you have completed your full motorcycle examination, you will no longer have to renew your CBT. However, if you do not carry on your training in Maidstone, you will be required to re-sit your CBT test after two years.

A ½ day short City and Guilds 2393-10 course aimed at anyone involved in electrical installations in dwellings. The Government approved Document P (electrical safety) came into effect on the 1st January 2005. For the first time the mainstream work of domestic electrical installers became subject to the requirements and procedures associated with Building Control. Domestic Electrical installers need to appreciate the requirements that apply to building work they carry out in connection with their electrical work, and they need to understand the way that Building Control works and the procedures that need to be followed. This short City and Guilds 2393-10 course is to enable those involved in the installation of electrical systems within the domestic environment to gain an understanding of how electrical installations in dwellings must comply with all relevant Building Regulations and how electrical installations in dwellings can affect the building construction. Please note that this City and Guilds 2393-10 qualification is only suitable for those practising their trade in England and Wales due to their being different regulations in Scotland and Northern Ireland. The City and Guilds 2393-10 examination is a 40 minute open book pc based assessment and will be held in the afternoon following the course, with instant results. The City and Guilds 2393-10 course costs include examination entry fees.
