Class 13 is committed to transforming education by embedding equity-centred approaches into the very fabric of school systems. Our programmes are designed to equip educators with the knowledge and tools needed to foster inclusive, affirming, and equitable environments.
Who are our programmes for?
All professionals working with children and young people can benefit from our training. Our sessions are based in dialogue, providing ample space for participants to ask questions and discuss their own practices and contexts.
Whether you are a teacher, youth worker, social worker, or other child-focused professional, our programmes offer valuable insights and strategies to enhance your practice and promote equity.
Our Foundational Learning programme is at the heart of our mission to drive long-term systemic change in education. This comprehensive learning journey explores the core principles of equity, guiding participants to address the root causes of inequity in their practices.

What past participants had to say
The sessions were the highlight of my week! The discussions and resources were excellent, and the relaxed environment encouraged open conversations about typically untouched topics. I now feel more confident questioning SLT decisions, like the true benefits of behavior policies or the impact of investing in diverse books while still hosting a jubilee party?
I feel it is an essential part of my growth as an educator. The community and support system provided are unparalleled.
I believe this is the kind of professional development that can truly transform educational practices and outcomes.
What a transformative experience! As someone who, before the course, would have deemed themselves alive to the ways that schools oppress, I was not expecting to come away a different person. Yet, I was awakened all over again. My practice is unrecognisable. I see oppression where I once saw justice, and I have been equipped with the language to understand and confront such instances.
the work being done is revolutionary for both educators and students. The emphasis on relationships and affirming practices is exactly what our education system needs.
Class 13 has shown an unwavering commitment to addressing the systemic failures affecting Black and marginalised children’s mental health. This aligns with our mission to fix environments rather than children so that schools are safe and nurturing spaces for every child.
