ISP provides high quality training, allows you to share best practice and gives you a chance to network with other schools and build lasting relationships. I would highly recommend reading their newsletters and getting involved. If you can attend one of the events or even consider holding a training day yourself you won't look back!

I fully recommend ISP for the valuable training they provide, which is very often hosted effortlessly at different schools across the country. When we hosted at Gayhurst, all that we needed to provide was a suitable room to accommodate the delegates, lunch and refreshments – ISP took care of all the administration. They use some excellent trainers and provide great opportunities for networking and discussion with colleagues from other schools. I have also found their regular newsletter to be informative and helpful for keeping up to date with a range of educational matters. I encourage you to get involved and attend one of their events.

The training was so relevant and it was very useful to meet other colleagues doing the same role. It's not always easy to organise high quality training and bring people together to share ideas - so the work that the Independent Schools Portal do is just super.
