Staff Training Terms & Conditions

Before any commission is accepted, the commissioning body must provide the SLT with a PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER and information regarding who to send the invoice to, and their contact details including a name and phone number.

The school will be hosting the training and take responsibility for organising the practicalities of the training session/s, including arranging for the venue, equipment and liaising with the participants and relevant personnel.

A designated member of staff, e.g.  SENCO,  will act as liaison with the SLT, in preparation for the training session and for any follow-up after.

Printed handouts are not provided.  The SLT will email an electronic version of any handout to the designated liaison person in the school no less than 2 days before the date of the session, for school to print out or distribute to the participants on the day.

It is the responsibility of the school to provide standard presentation equipment and facilities such as LCD projector, flip-chart, paper and stationery for the presentation and for participant use.  The SLT will contact the school in advance to discuss what needs to be set up for the session/s.

If training involves more than 1 sessions, participants may be given tasks to complete in between sessions.  This is expected to be done and the participants are expected to provide feedback to the whole group.

Once date/s are confirmed, if, for any reason, the school have to cancel or reschedule any or all of the training session/s, they must give a minimum of 1 full week's notice or the session/s will still be charged in full.  

Allowance may be made if there are extenuating circumstances, but this is not a given and is considered entirely at the SLT's discretion.

If the SLT has to cancel due to e.g. illness or an emergency, the SLT will notify the school at the earliest opportunity, and will endeavour to re-schedule the training session/s with the school as soon as possible.  The commissioning organisation will not be charged for an extra session.

An invoice will be sent to the commissioning organisation 2 weeks before the date of the start of the training session/s, and must be settled in full no later than 2 weeks after the completion of the training session/s.

If any additional charge is incurred, e.g. due to the actual number of attendees exceeding that which has been pre-agreed, or additional session/s being agreed beyond the original agreement, the funding organisation will be further invoiced for the additional charge, and payment must be settled in full no later than 2 weeks from the issuing date of the invoice.

All payments are by bank transfer.  Only payments in full amount gross, i.e. before tax, are accepted.  If there is any issue with processing  payment, the commissioning organisation must contact the SLT to discuss and agree alternative option/s for payment without delay.  Payment deadline must still be met, or additionl charges may be incurred.
