"Excellent course, I really enjoyed it. So many ideas to take back to school to use with the children and share with colleagues."

Course objectives focused on the National Curriculum or Early Learning Goals and the learning / teaching interface, more than meet the challenges set in today’s educational world. The directory of courses is built on years of highly acclaimed training delivered together with extra ingredients that make Val Sabin Five Star Training the best you can get. Our course programme can be delivered at a venue to suit you or at our Northampton training headquarters.

All our courses are interactive and participative and our group sizes range from 6 to 40 depending on the type of course. Our commitment to quality is in everything we do. We systematically evaluate every course and follow up a representative sample for feedback 3 months after each course. Our quality control gives us confidence in the service that we offer and if you are unhappy with a course in any way we refund an individual's money in full.
