Free Training and Resources for Schools and Educators

At educationRnR, we believe schools and trusts should have access to high-quality resources and professional development without unnecessary cost. That’s why we’ve created this hub of free training and practical guides, designed to save you time, strengthen compliance and support your staff.

Whether you’re a classroom teacher, a member of support staff or a senior leader, these resources are here to help you focus on what matters most: improving outcomes for pupils.

At educationRnR, we are committed to supporting the ongoing growth and development of every candidate we work with. As proud members of APSCo and adherents to the Compliance+ standards, we believe that access to high-quality training is essential for maintaining excellence in education and safeguarding.

All registered candidates receive access to free safeguarding, PREVENT and FGM training to ensure they remain compliant and confident in protecting children and young people. In addition, we provide a range of professional resources and guides to help you succeed in your role.

Through our partnership with the CPD Online College, candidates working with educationRnR can also earn and redeem credits towards accredited CPD courses, further enhancing their professional skills and career progression.

Our goal is to ensure that every candidate is equipped, informed and supported - not only to meet compliance expectations, but to thrive in their educational journey.

We provide direct access to CPD-certified training courses that every school needs to keep staff confident and compliant:

• Safeguarding Training - essential for all staff working with children.
• PREVENT Training - helping schools protect pupils from radicalisation and extremism.
• FGM Awareness Training - ensuring staff understand their duty to protect and report.

✔ 100% free and online

✔ CPD-accredited certificates included

✔ Available to teachers, support staff and school leaders

This training is ideal for induction, refresher learning or whole-staff CPD.

This hub is just the start. Our vision is to make free, high-quality resources available wherever schools and educators need them most:

• ChatEd - our platform for articles, insights and thought leadership, giving educators a voice and creating a space for collaboration.

In time, this resources hub will grow across these platforms, making it even easier for schools, trusts and individuals to find what they need in one place.
