This month we highlighted the wonderful work of Gavin McCormack and Richard Mills and their new educational venture, upschool
Richard Mills and Gavin McCormack are ex-teachers and co-founders of Upschool.co, an organization co-founded by the two friends to fill the void in the education system around the world. The platform provides free education to children around the world aligned with the Sustainability Goals of the United Nations. Each term, the company releases a new set of learning materials for schools to engage in in the classroom to further enhance the delivery of education.
The team at Upschool.co aims to provide quality free education each and every term for the rest of the company's existence. With the use of technology, unending enthusiasm, and a great love of education, we have an ambitious goal to create real change in not only the education system but more broadly speaking, humanity. The team believes bridging the gap between those who have or those who have not is the aim of education. Giving children the wings to fly and the power to understand that they can make a difference in the world regardless of their background is a fundamental role in the company's core values.
Be sure to read more about their unique global venture to change the world of education,

My Body is My Body continues to educate hundreds of teachers, social workers, NGOs, and those who work with children on Chrissy Sykes' free Child Abuse Prevention program.

We appreciate all the work everyone is doing to protect children.
