What our candidates, partners & networks are saying about us
The NPQH has been invaluable in terms of the theory and reading I have undertaken - this was picked up during the interview so I can safely say that the course has played a key role in my new appointment!
Truon Ellis | NPQH Participant
I have thoroughly enjoyed the (NASENCo) course and would recommend highly to others. The course has helped me to be more strategic and think outside of the box. Thank you!
NASENCo Candidate
The quality and accessibility of assessment was exceptional. The assessor was highly responsive and gave meaningful and timely feedback.
DSBM Candidate
I'm so glad I did my NPQH with Best Practice Network (and OLP), rather than another provider. Made it so real and prepared me so well.

As a graduate entrant, the EYITT is a great way of quickly understanding the sector and getting to grips with the role, with good support from personal tutors along the way."
Will Scott | EYITT Candidate
Achieving HLTA Status has allowed me to gain so many more skills and get a place on a teacher training course after a few months.
HLTA Graduate, 2019
The course has been a extremely structured and beneficial. It has helped me to reflect on what I have been doing well and what I can improve on as an ECT. Each module has benefitted my own pedagogy and has helped me become a stronger and more resilient classroom teacher.

The programme supports the development requirements for my ECT as well as supporting me in assisting my ECT to grow in their professional capacity.
