Edapt provides edu-legal support for school staff in England and Wales. We feature a range of blog posts from teachers and educators every month.
At Edapt, the majority of our subscribers are women, reflecting the profession as a whole. As an organisation where we value ourselves on providing high-quality employment support for all school staff we understand the importance of International Women’s Day (March 8) as a global day celebrating the social, economic and cultural achievements of women.
Our team at Edapt love reading for pleasure and life-long learning as we celebrate this World Book Day. As former teachers, and as we support those who work in classrooms throughout the country, we appreciate the pleasure which reading brings as it opens up worlds of creativity and knowledge.
At the current time there is lots on the political horizon in which teachers may wish to engage pupils’ interest. We have a General Election coming into view, analysis of the budget taking place, industrial action in education being raised and on top of that, Local Elections. There is lots of scope for well rounded, informative and educational debate.

It’s that time of the year when we receive lots of enquiries from our subscribers about teacher resignation dates. As explained in our support article on the topic, The Burgundy Book outlines the terms and conditions for handing in your notice in maintained schools.
