Usually, there is 1 NELI group per class which requires training 1 member of staff to deliver NELI to pupils (usually a teaching assistant) and the Reception class teacher is also required to undertake some training.
Your nominated NELI lead, if they are not a Reception class teacher already expected to receive training, could additionally opt to take part in training if they’d like. Therefore, a one-form entry school usually nominates 3 members of staff for training and a two-form entry school usually nominates 5 members of staff.
