Inspiring the next generation of leaders to meet the global challenges of our time

In an ever-changing world, The Edwin Group stands as a beacon of progress, combining innovative solutions with a steadfast commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) responsibilities. Aligned with six United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), The Edwin Group’s Recruit, Retain, and Reduce strategy is revolutionising the education landscape while championing sustainability.

Good health and wellbeing: Laying the foundation for success

Student success begins with good health. The Edwin Group recognises that a supportive school environment is critical for fostering resilience and lifelong positive habits.

Enrich Education’s outdoor learning and Commando Joe’s character education programmes bring fresh approaches to enhancing student wellbeing, encouraging creativity, and building resilience.

Recognising the pivotal role of educators, we also champion staff wellbeing. With increasing teacher attrition rates, The Edwin Group also prioritises staff wellbeing. Still Human is dedicated to wellbeing and offers tailored support on a range of topics. From stress management workshops to Menopause Ambassador courses, these programs enable schools to embed a culture of care, fostering healthier and more sustainable workplaces.

Quality education: The core of progress

Inclusive and equitable education drives societal advancement, and The Edwin Group is at the forefront of ensuring every student has access to exceptional learning opportunities.

With Vision for Education, ABC Teachers and Smart Teachers, connecting thousands of education settings with dedicated teaching staff, and Llama ID streamlining safeguarding processes, quality education becomes a reality. Our Commando Joe’s and Enrich Education programmes further enrich student engagement by embedding physical activity and character-building into the curriculum. Beyond the classroom, The Edwin Group’s community initiatives, such as book donations and our No Child Without a Present campaign, demonstrate our holistic approach to education.

Reducing inequalities: Championing equity in schools

Education should be a level playing field, yet socio-economic disparities persist. The Edwin Group takes a proactive stance, empowering schools to bridge this gap.

Through Edwin People, strategic HR solutions foster equity and inclusivity, while Edwin Supply ensures fair recruitment practices free from bias. Together, these efforts create nurturing environments where every student, regardless of background, can excel.

Decent work and economic growth: Building futures

The Edwin Group not only supports education but also drives economic growth. By providing work placements for over 10,000 teachers and support staff annually, the group offers robust career development opportunities through continuous training programs.

We also assist students with career readiness, offering employability workshops, mock interviews and CV writing sessions. By equipping students with the tools they need to succeed in the workforce, we aim to inspire confidence and ambition in the next generation.

Climate action: Empowering sustainability leaders

Schools play a crucial role in combating climate change. By integrating climate action into practices and the curriculum, educators can inspire students to adopt environmentally responsible behaviours and drive global change.

Commando Joe’s is currently developing climate action missions, to celebrate figures like Sir David Attenborough and Dame Ellen MacArthur, using their stories to teach students the skills needed to address environmental challenges. These programs will empower the next generation to become the leaders of tomorrow.

A vision for a sustainable future

Through collaboration, innovation, and an unwavering focus on wellbeing, equity, and sustainability, The Edwin Group is shaping the future of education and society. Together with education leaders, the group is not only addressing today’s challenges but also laying the groundwork for a brighter, more sustainable future.
