Welcome to Linwood Training, Support & Advice

Testimonials from BCP School staff

• We’ve had a number of different Outreach teachers come in to support with children in our school – every single one has been incredibly supportive, understanding and has provided teachers with practical (and manageable!) strategies to support the child/ren in their class. The advice given has been so appropriate that we’ve been able to broaden some of these strategies and embed them into our QFT or as a first response for other children across the school.

• My team and I have been able to access a wide range of relevant and highly informative training via LTSA. This has helped us to broaden our knowledge base and add strategies to our ‘tool box’ . In turn we have been able to share our learning with our colleagues. LTSA listen to us and what we need and provide a bespoke training package to suit a wide range of schools. It is truly invaluable and the best training package that I have ever had access to.

• Linwood Outreach Support has made a huge difference to the quality of provision we are offering to some of our students with SEND and improved the knowledge and skills of our staff team. The support is fair, non-judgemental and fundamentally holds the child at the centre of everything they do.We are in debt to this service and incredibly grateful for the comprehensive support we have been given.

• The training offered by LTSA is fantastic and covers by far the widest and most detailed offer I have received in over 20 years of teaching. The support for such a wide range of Special Educational Needs is incredible and I have learned so much, all of which I use on a daily basis in my school!
