We had another meeting of the Chartered Teacher network on 25 September.  This was an opportunity for all CTs plus anyone in East Lothian interested in pursuing CT to come along to share practice and get a chance to ask questions and get some  much needed support for those in a similar position.

The attendance was a little disapointing and there was discussion about how we encourage more staff to attend this and ensure they get value from it.  You’ll see from section 1 in the minutes there’s a few suggestions but basically there are a few questions:

• is twilight the best time?
• could we identify a Friday afternoon that wasn’t be used for a CAT/CPD session - would this be better?
• What format should we consider - a big group meeting, group members sorted into modules to support each other through these, a CT conference, a cluster working model for CTs.  Any other suggestions welcome!

I will be emailing out to the group but please post any comments or suggestions here as well.  Once I get a response I will send out with a further date for the meeting(s)!
