National Professional Qualifications (NPQs) are nationally recognised programmes that support teachers and leaders to deepen their expertise and strengthen their impact in school. They offer structured training and practical development for current and aspiring leaders at every level. We deliver a range of NPQs in partnership with the National Institute of Teaching (NIoT).
Where do we work?
Our programmes are delivered from our dedicated base at the Laurus Institute in Cheadle Hulme, Stockport.
Why train with us?
Our NPQ programmes have been carefully designed with educators in mind. They are:
- focused on improving outcomes for children
- evidence-informed and practical, connecting research to the reality of schools and applying global expertise to local contexts
- designed and delivered by serving leaders who understand the pressures and nuances of school life
- structured to fit around teachers’ busy schedules
