DSL Refresher Course

Cost - £119+VAT for members, £169+VAT for non-members - Contact us if you are looking to book 6 or more places

This course is designed for DSLs based in England who have had their initial DSL Training with their local authority and provides a refresher keeping you up to date with latest statutory guidance and best practice so that you are ready for the new academic year.  We cover everything related to KCSIE and invite discussion and participation around forthcoming changes.  


Note: We always recommend approaching your local authority for any DSL Training/Refreshers in the first instance.  We are here to compliment, not replace local training.
