Keeping your space safe
Secured access
Teacher Central has been created to allow educators to connect with each other, share ideas, and seek support from others within the teaching environment.
To ensure the security of the platform, we ask that you use your educational email address on the app, this ensures that our members are validated within the teaching environment and the space becomes as safe and secure as possible.
To achieve this we only accept certain emails:
.ac.uk
.sch.uk
.gov.uk
.nhs.uk
.(company name)
24 hour validation
Once you have logged in, your membership will be validated within 24 hours.
If for some reason your email is not validated or you do not fall into the above emails categories, but are in the teaching profession, please get in contact with us so we can validate your email manually.
Click on the 'Get in touch' button at the bottom of the page and let us know.
We do not share
Just to reassure you, we are only here to share knowledge, and not your information.
We will never share your information with any third parties, we only ask for your educational email address to keep our space as secure as possible. We're sure you'll understand that a stray trouble maker in a sensitive setting can not only be annoying, but upsetting.

This has probably been our most challenging ambition since we began our 20 year journey. To provide a platform where every school in the UK can have a conversation with each other. As our community grows you will be able to connect with other teachers, share your stories, and create a community that celebrates the work not only of your pupils, but your own teaching initiatives.
When you fist visit the chatroom, post a hello and introduce yourself, we have purposely left this section as an open platform to see how it develops organically.
Usual rules apply, no posts that sell anything or link to commercial ventures. No sexist, abusive, homophobic or provocative language that may cause offence. If you witness any of this, please report it immediately so we can act at the earliest opportunity.

Provide guidance
Imagine being able to sit in a room full of other PSHE teachers from around the country and
connect with other like minded people, share ideas, post information, or seek support within the curriculum from other teachers.
The Teacher's Forum has been created so you can connect, share or observe what others are doing. Post questions, ask advice or discuss topics that are relevant to you.
The main reason for this feature was the common theme when visiting schools, that many teachers feel isolated and sometimes unable to source the support they require. This is the place for exactly that!
Your Profile Settings
You can change your profile settings in the Profile feature, just click on the three buttons on the top right of this page to access functions.
