Twilights

During the 2026 - 2027 academic year Durrington Research School will be offering 13 online professional development twilight programmes. The topics have been chosen based on what teachers and school leaders have requested most often when engaging with us over the past few years. Other than secondary science and secondary reading, each of the programmes are designed to be cross-phase and suitable for teachers of all age groups.

The twilight programmes are open to all, each programme will run from 3:30pm-5pm, fitting into a 6–8week block of three 90-minute online sessions. Information can be found on the Durrington Research School website here
