Training Directory- School Readiness Passport

As this academic year comes to an end, we will be updating our training directory and professional development information ready for the year 2025-2026. This offer will be available via the School Readiness Passport from 1st September 2025. 

There has been a delay this year in releasing this information due to changes to some of our professional development offers in line with the new safeguarding and welfare reforms, as well as updates to our digital learning platform. If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch via the EY mailbox: EarlyYearsTeam@northumberland.gov.uk
