Chatterbooks for schools
A one day course for teaching and non-teaching staff wishing to set up Chatterbooks in their school. It covers how to set up and run a group, and how to make the most of the Chatterbooks experience and offer to develop children as enthusiastic and successful readers.
Late autumn 2011 Date tba
Chatterbooks training for public library staff
A one day training day provides an essential introduction for library staff new to Chatterbooks. It is also highly recommended for library staff who want to refresh or top up on previous training in this field. And if you're planning to start a Chatterbooks reading group in your authority, then this is also the training for you (or your staff).
You will come away with practical ideas of how to set up, run and develop a successful and lively Chatterbooks programme for your library service - and information on how you can evaluate your Chatterbooks groups' achievements.
October 6th 2011 at Freeword: now fully booked.
Next course: Spring 2012 tba
Places cost £195 per person and £175 for each subsequent delegate from the same authority
