Training for teachers and workshop leaders

Kent and the Wider World offers continuing professional development (CPD) training for teachers, youth workers, education practitioners and others working with children and young people.

We can offer a range of twilight sessions, half-day or full-day trainings on a range of Global Citizenship themes in your school or organisation. We will bring along recommended resources and artefacts to browse and which are available to borrow from our resource centre.

We require a minimum of four participants on any of the training sessions. Schools in close proximity to each other or local cluster groups could link up to host a training event together.

Half day training £25
Full day training £50

These training events are made possible and subsidised by our funders.
