“...fantastic... not often in one training session do you get as many practical application strategies that you can see being useful across the school.”


- Gayle Platt, headteacher at Dersingham VA Primary and Nursery School, October 2016.

No two schools are the same. Even standard courses are tailored to fit you:

• Ongoing dialogue before and between sessions to make sure you get exactly what you want.

• Detailed instruction on best-practice order of deployment.

• Order the modules to fit your priorities.

• Integrate modules from several courses, to tweak for specific areas, such as SEN or EAL.


All Werdelin Education courses simulate a classroom in order for you to experience Cooperative Learning from a learner's perspective. Among other things, this lets you:

• Understand the real importance of good modelling.

• Find increased empathy for your learners.

• Achieve insight into the learning process within each activity.

• Work with keystage-relevant materials and tasks.

• Experience first-hand the benefits and challenges of peer learning.

• Gain personal awareness of how Cooperative Learning supports metacognition.


Handouts hold all the information you need so that:

• You can  start to deploy the CLIPs the following day

• The presentation is not slowed or distracted because you need to rely on notes.


This course/CPD may be presented in short blocks after school, which means:

• You don't need complex planning becase you can use any pre-slotted staff-meetings or internal PD slots.

• You have no cost for cover.

• Activities are presented in managable bite-sizes, avoiding overload.


Many options for targeted coaching of teachers and SLT, lesson observations, and feedback.


All courses integrate Q&A sessions, as well as sharing of ideas and best-practice among delegates, to maximise impact through peer support, and demonstrate how to secure key components of outstanding teaching, including written evidence and progress tracking, conducting unobtrusive, targeted monitoring, etc. Add your own by contacting me now.
