Live from the catalogue — never a hand-typed list, so what you see here is what you can actually enrol on.

  • A woman standing and pinching the bridge of her nose

    Anxiety and Depression

    A colleague who is struggling rarely announces it. Anxiety and depression are common among staff in education settings, and they show up as fatigue, lost concentration, absence and quiet withdrawal long before anyone uses the words. The cost lands on the individual first, then on the team and the…

  • A school lunch tray holding a bread roll and an apple

    Eating Disorders

    A pupil with an eating disorder rarely announces it. What staff notice first is smaller things: baggy clothes in warm weather, a plate scraped into the bin, laps run at lunchtime, a capable child whose grades have slipped. Early identification changes the outcome. The course sets out the main…

  • Children raising their hands in a classroom

    Mental Health Awareness

    A pupil in difficulty rarely says so. It shows instead in concentration that slips, work that tails off, a quiet child who withdraws further, or behaviour that reads as disruption. Teaching staff see those changes before anyone else does, which is why recognising them matters. The course opens with…

  • A child playing with magnetic construction toys

    Schizophrenia Awareness

    Schizophrenia is usually diagnosed in adulthood, but it does occur in children, and the first signs often show up at school: a pupil who withdraws, whose work falls away, who seems to hear something no one else can. Staff are not there to diagnose. They are often the first to notice. The course…

  • A black and white photograph of a person sitting with their head bowed

    Understanding Self-Harm Among Children and Young People

    A young person who self-harms usually hides it. Injuries sit where clothing covers them, and the behaviour is more often a way of coping with distress than an attempt to be noticed. Reported rates among children in the UK have risen sharply in recent years. The course defines self-harm, its…

  • A medical illustration of the brain showing the limbic system

    Understanding the Neurobiology of Trauma

    Trauma changes how a child's brain works, not only how they feel. A pupil who cannot sit still, who flares up at a small correction, or who seems absent for whole lessons may be running a threat response that started long before they entered the room. The course opens with what trauma is and how it…

    Working with CAMHS (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services)

    A child in distress usually shows it at school first. Staff see the changes in mood, attendance and behaviour long before a specialist service does. A 2018 report by the Children's Commissioner for England found that only one in four children who needed mental health support were receiving it. The…

About the courses

How long does a course take?

Most take between 45 minutes and two hours. The longer safeguarding courses run to three. You can stop and come back where you left off.

Are they accredited?

Our courses are CPD-accredited and carry CPD points, which count towards the record you keep here or send elsewhere.

Are they kept up to date?

Yes. Courses tied to statutory guidance, such as Keeping Children Safe in Education, are reviewed when that guidance changes rather than once a year out of habit.

Can my school assign courses to staff?

Yes. A school or trust can assign the courses each role needs and see who has completed them.

Sign in, pick a course and work through it whenever you have half an hour.
