Ward Hadaway’s Continuing Professional Development programme for schools

This page is the home of this year's Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Programme for schools; a training programme by Ward Hadaway for HR and employment teams who are rooted within the education sector.

This programme, which has been spread over the past year, has looked at six key topics which people teams come across day in day out. We have discussed recent innovations, challenges posed by the changing face of the workplace, and recent case law updates.

We ran this session alongside more general training for HR teams, and for people teams working for charities. To access the videos for charities please click here.

From October ’21 through to June we have covered 6 key topics.

  1. Recruitment, Contracts of employment and Handbook
  2. Managing capability: performance and sickness absence
  3. Grievances and Whistleblowing
  4. Discrimination and Family friendly rights
  5. Dealing with misconduct: investigations and disciplinary matters
  6. Employment Tribunal claims

The recording of all of these sessions are now available to watch at your leisure below.
