Listen to the experiences of some of the prison teachers across the UK!
Prison Education Consultant
I spent 26 years working my way up from the classroom, to the chief operating officer of the UK’s largest prison education provider.
Prison Teacher
I have had the opportunity to try new things and get involved across the curriculum, which has given me the chance to grow and develop as a teacher.
We’re offering a free training course to anyone considering working within the prison education sector.
We caught up with ex-offenders who’ve come through
prison education, and built themselves up stronger than ever.
Criminology & Philosophy Student
It took your mind off where you are in your life, it got you to focus on something productive, and something constructive. My teachers made me feel like everything was an opportunity which was a huge benefit for me. All of this stuff helped me maintain my mental balance, by giving me something to focus on in my future
Open University Graduate
These teachers made me feel human again by simply speaking to me like a normal person, on the same level as me, which can be difficult to find in a prison.
I found the education section of the prison, completely different from the main prison. My teachers were able to run the curriculum exactly how they wanted to run it.
