I'm due to pick up my first half decent RWD car on Friday and I'm looking at doing either a novice track day or some sort of handling/tuition course to try and get to know her a bit better.

Has anyone got any recommendation which would be best and any specific track days/courses?

Cheers!

Motorsport vision do Novice trackdays. They own half a dozen or so circuits in the UK. I have to confess I've only ever been on their "normal" open pit lane days, but I found them to be well organised.
I think some places even do a "pay by the half hour if you're new" thing as well. Might even be MSV.
Have you asked in the track day forum here? Or on 10 tenths forum?
