It was fantastic to see so many of you at the Welcome Session yesterday. Thank you for coming along - we hope it was a useful session for you. 
Hope you are all settling in well to your new schools. The year will fly by! We are in new offices in Amersham so it's a change for us too. 
Remember to use the contact form on here if you have any queries for us.

We would love to meet you all at our NQT welcome session on 16th September. It's 2pm - 4:30pm at Green Park Centre, Aston Clinton. Please do book onto the session so that we know how many people are coming.
Please ask the CPD leader to book you onto the session (and any other CPD) on our new online booking system www.learningtrust.com. All Bucks maintained schools and academies should now be set up on the system - if not, please ask your mentor/CPD leader to contact BLTonline@learningtrust.net. If you are at an independent or out of county school please ask your mentor to contact Mark Bignell on 01296 387485 who can set your school up on the system.

New CPD Booking System for September 2014 - FAO induction tutors/office staff

 We are pleased to announce the NQT Autumn Term training programme has been added to BLT Online, our new online solution for booking courses and events. New dates and courses will continue to be added throughout the term. Please remember to book early to avoid disappointment. A calendar of courses will be available to view on www.learningtrust.net and is on the Continuous Professional Development page.

Following feedback from the previous booking system and issues customers had reported, BLT Online will be a straightforward and more accessible way of booking training online.

Next Steps – the CPD leader now needs to register at BLT Online and create an establishment for the first time. Add your setting contact details and create your own username and password. This will only take a few minutes. Your account is then checked and approved. Once you have received confirmation of registration by email you can go ahead and add staff to your establishment and make bookings. For guidance on how to add staff and book colleagues please refer to the user guide on BLT Online. All courses must be paid for online and you will continue to receive confirmation of your place by email.

We welcome your feedback, questions or queries.  We are continuing to work with the developers over the term should any issues emerge.  If you have any problems using BLT Online you can access support from a user manual available on the BLT Online system, or email BLTonline@learningtrust.net  with your problem and include your contact details.
