BRADFORD EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY TEAM

EPT Traded Services 2012-13

Introduction

The EPT allocates time to 10 areas of activity outlined in the documentTime Allocation Model 2012-13 in the EPT area on Bradford Schools Online (BSO). Settings receive a Core allocation ‘free of charge’ to carry out non-statutory work. Statutory work is undertaken using time from a central EPT allocation. Approximately 8% of the EPT time is assigned to traded activity, though this figure may vary depending on demand throughout the year.

Traded Services to Settings

Settings are able to augment their Core allocation through:

  • Purchasing Additional time
  • Commissioning One Off interventions or training (for a list of suggested interventions please see Menu of Educational Psychologist Led Interventions 2012-13 in the EPT area on BSO)
