ARISE Staff Training

ARISE provides practical training for teachers and school staff on understanding racism and responding to racist incidents in school. Many educators want to address these issues well but feel they have had little guidance or formal training. These sessions provide practical advice, real-life examples and clear strategies that staff can use in the classroom and across the school. Training can be delivered in person or online and is suitable for teachers, support staff, leadership teams and governors.
