“We’ve been able to learn from different professionals, access really specialised and precise training, thinking about safeguarding, leadership, wellbeing and curriculum – and we’ve been able to think about how to bring that learning into our school community.”
-Daniel, Assistant Headteacher
“It’s very easy for a teacher to say I want to make a difference and then it’s stop there, but I think The Difference challenges you into action and empowers you to go back to those leaders, those traditional models and say, here’s the evidence to show it’s not working – here’s now some proof about what we could do.”
-Donna, Assistant Headteacher
“There is a need for organisations like The Difference to be champions of those children and young people that need extra support. The Difference does a good job of providing training, expertise and research to affect change on a wider scale.”
– Catherine, School improvement SEND adviser
“It’s so inspirational knowing that there’s so many like-minded people that understand the issues and are passionate about compassionate teaching and inclusive teaching. It makes you realise if we fight hard enough, eventually this is where the education system as a whole is going to end up.”
– Xavier, Mission44
