"I think all human beings should have a good standard of living, not just a few getting all the wealth and leaving nothing for those who do the hard work." David Webster, pupil

Teachers Fairtrade Workshops 

The Fairtrade Foundation and partner organisations are running a variety of training workshops and inset programmes in the Autumn term and beyond.

What are the workshops about and who are they for?

The workshops are aimed at teachers who want to learn more about Fairtrade and the way to include issues of trade in the curriculum. They will provide opportunities to share ideas and learn from other teachers as well as to ask all the burning questions about Fairtrade. They aim to inspire and reassure those teachers that are thinking about applying for the Fairtrade Schools Award, those already working towards it and those looking for ideas for renewing their status. They also aspire to strengthen the knowledge of issues of trade and why Fairtrade is needed.
