NATIONAL THANK A TEACHER DAY 🙏

Today we celebrate National Thank a Teacher Day – a perfect opportunity to recognise the incredible work teachers and educators do every single day.
Behind every qualification, every new skill, and every boost in confidence, there’s a teacher who has taken the time to support, guide and inspire. From early years to adult learning, their impact reaches far beyond the classroom.

A HUGE thank you to all the dedicated teachers, trainers, assessors, and support staff who make a difference to learners’ lives.

Your patience, passion and commitment do not go unnoticed.

If you’ve ever had a teacher who made a difference to you, today is the day to let them know – a simple “thank you” goes a long way.

Are you confident in how your organisation handles staff misconduct?

Scenario: A staff member has been messaging a learner outside of working hours. The tone of the conversation is making others feel uncomfortable, but there’s no clear policy breach… yet. Concerns have been raised, emotions are high, and senior staff are unsure how to proceed without escalating things incorrectly.

Would you know what steps to take?

✔️ What constitutes misconduct vs gross misconduct
✔️ How to investigate fairly and legally
✔️ When safeguarding concerns change the process entirely

Our Managing Staff Misconduct session is designed for HR professionals, Senior Leadership Teams and DSLs who need to handle these situations confidently and compliantly.

🗓 Wednesday 17th June 2026
⏰ 1.30pm – 4.30pm
➡️ Practical guidance
➡️ Real-world scenarios
➡️ Clear, actionable steps

We are delighted to be working with Specsavers again this year, delivering safeguarding training to their outstanding apprenticeship team.

Pete Pavitt, Specsavers Designed Safeguarding Lead said,

“We have been working with Best for Training over the last 3 years for both apprentice coaches and safeguarding leads. We chose Best for Training based on their ability to put a clear focus on safeguarding from the perspective of an apprenticeship employer provider.

The training provided by both Sam and Anne over the last 3 years has enabled our team to not only build a clear and working understanding of safeguarding practice but also provided key insights into age-appropriate subjects that include the impact of County Lines, Incel groups and associated topics. Using our own examples to really embed and keep relevant the content provided. They go out of their way to provide current information and trends that really enable us both to support our apprentice in the best possible way and also keep them informed and safe.

We look forward to having them back in the future for further support and updates.”
