EqualiTeach delivers training for teachers, trainee teachers, support staff, senior leadership teams and governors, providing them with the skills, knowledge and confidence to promote equality and tackle discrimination in their settings.
Our sessions provide a safe space in which participants are able to raise concerns in a non- judgemental, non-confrontational, open and honest environment, knowing that their opinion will be treated with respect. Learning takes place through interactive and engaging methods, with small group activities and whole group discussions, providing the opportunity to learn from each other and from expert facilitators.
All our packages can be tailored, combined and adapted to the specific needs of your setting, including being offered as live online sessions via Zoom. We have a robust Coronavirus Risk Assessment to enable us to work with your staff safely.
We work closely with you to design the most suitable and engaging session. See some examples of the training sessions we deliver below and get in touch to discuss how we can develop a bespoke package to meet your setting’s requirements.

We have recently launched our
