The activities designed for students happen 100% in person at school. Our programmes are made to help teachers bring interactive, hands-on activities into classrooms to do during instructional hours. However, our team decided to make teacher training more scalable by making it happen online. How? Through the online social learning community on our platform devoted to each programme.

For three reasons: 1) It’s more scalable: we can reach schools anywhere, anytime; 2) It has a bigger impact: teachers know their students better and know how to tailor-make our programmes to meet their specific learning needs; 3) It’s more sustainable: teachers can repeat what they learnt and did with us for many years (and students!) to come.

Well, teachers are happy to take part in our programmes for several reasons: first, we help them tackle topics not easy to discuss in the classroom with free, ready-made materials designed by Instructional Design experts; second, we provide them with our social learning platform where they can talk with their peers, and and have the support of WeSchool tutors to make them feel taken care of and encouraged. Often, they will have to complete milestones to unlock the next batch of materials, by sharing students’ assignments or projects with us. For all these reasons, our programmes have an 81% completion rate!

We make this decision collaboratively with our partners. We jointly define the number of teachers and students to onboard, and then we reach out and engage with schools and educators using a variety of means (emails, social networks, phone calls, etc.) to ensure the achievement of this goal.

It’s totally up to you! After having agreed on the topic of the programme, we create all the teaching materials (branded with the partner’s palette and logo) and we foster the teachers’ and students’ involvement. We usually set up regular meetings with the partners to talk about the status of the programme and, if desired, we can involve the partners’ employees as ambassadors or mentors. We provide them with soft skills training and prepare them in advance to visit schools during pivotal stages of the programme to interact with students.

Education is the best way to craft talents and to have an ever-lasting impact on the future we want to build. Did you know that every teacher meets on average 1.2K students during their career? The programmes we develop with partners equip teachers with skills and knowledge they can pass onto their current and future students. Furthermore, our programmes are tailored from the ground up using partners’ value propositions and expertise and we translate your impact goals into hands-on activities and teaching materials.

Psst, at the end of the programme we measure the impact the programme had and share the results with you, in case you want to mention that in your ESG report.
