July 2009

Dear reader,

Welcome to the July issue of tdaNews. This month, we’re introducing a new section dedicated to continuing professional development. ‘CPD matters’ will capture all the latest news about CPD for the children’s workforce in schools and report on developments in research and current thinking.

This is our last issue before the summer break. To help ensure the information we hold is current, correct and compliant, we’ll contact all our stakeholders in September. Please check and confirm your details so we can ensure that you receive the TDA communications that are useful and relevant to you.

Editor, tdaNews
