What makes my CPD offer stand out in the crowd? With th\"Elevationeir new budget holding responsibilities, schools are scrutinising more than ever the quality of the CPD they access. They will want the best – and they will be increasingly discerning as they draw down your provision. How will you match up to this scrutiny? Are you, your colleagues and associates achieving your aspirations? Could delivery be even more effective for participants, schools and the pupils they serve? Will they say in six months time, ‘that was money well spent’ and come back for more? CUREE has spent twelve years appraising and making public international evidence about what makes a difference in CPD, and investigating practice at home - most recently evaluating the CPD of a large number of providers across England. We have been able to distil this knowledge into a set of principles, benchmarks and tools which we are now making available both to schools, as buyers of CPD, and to providers You can take advantage of this knowledge and experience through our Elevation for CPD Providers service. Elevation will help you review, evaluate and improve the quality of your provision. In particular you will be able to: review your provision against robust evidence of what helps practitioners get better outcomes for pupils; show that your provision meets these criteria; demonstrate your commitment to quality and value for money; benchmark both your provision and its pricing against a raft of similar provision. Did you know?: provision achieving the same levels of professional learning could fluctuate in cost - anything from £24 to £1,350? needs analysis and connecting professional learning with student outcomes are often the weaker aspects of provision? Elevation can help you learn from the best and maximise the cost-benefit ratio of your offer. What do I get? Why is it called Elevation? This picture is a benchmark. Some dictionaries say that this was the original use of the term - "a surveyor's mark cut in a wall, pillar, or building and used as a reference point in measuring altitudes" a mark of elevation. Of course, we also think that we can elevate your provision by: helping you make it better and; public accreditation for your commitment to quality and value for money
