CPD Lead | Teaching and Learning Coach | Teaching Mentor Application Covering Letter

(0)
In this resource, you will find a 4 page example teacher coach/teaching mentor/CPD lead application letter or supporting statement. These are usually roles which lead on coaching teachers and offering teaching and learning support for staff within school and are often internal positions. These may also be staff who lead on CPD, who audit CPD needs within school and work as a team with the SLT link for learning and teaching. This letter is useful if you are applying for any of these roles and should give you a great starting point. This resource is full of ideas for your own letter and is a great base for writing your own application. I always recommend making sure your own letter fits descriptions for roles and never send a blanket letter to schools or for internal positions.
