Racial Literacy & Microaggression - CPD Training

Our main goals of the Teacher Training module is to highlight some key anti racist training that relates directly to schools and the education industry. We teach many of the key concepts that we teach the students, in our student-facing workshop and mirror the same learning so there is a holistic approach throughout the whole school. 

 We can offer training in-person during staff INSET days, and also online training via Zoom, to suit your school and its schedule.

The Module is split up into 3 main areas:
