The International Rescue Committee’s Healing Classrooms programme aims to support schools and educators to develop inclusive and nurturing learning spaces where refugee and asylum-seeking students can gain the necessary academic, social and emotional skills to develop their full potential.
We offer free training sessions and resources to educators and schools supporting refugee and asylum-seeking students in the UK.
The training consists of three 90-minute online sessions led by an IRC education specialist who has experience of the English education system as well as having worked with refugees both in this country and abroad. The sessions will provide you with an opportunity to learn about the Healing Classrooms model and to share expertise with other educators in your region. We also offer Healing Spaces training sessions for organisations that work with forcibly displaced people and children outside of school. Please visit our website to register your interest.
