1. About The Curriculum Network
The Curriculum Network is an education network operated by The Education Company Limited ("we", "us" or "our").
These Terms & Conditions apply to your use of The Curriculum Network website, your membership of The Curriculum Network and your participation in the services and activities we provide.
By registering as a member or using the website, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.

Membership of The Curriculum Network is intended for people aged 18 or over who work in, or have an interest in, the UK education sector. This includes teachers, school leaders, other education professionals and others with a genuine interest in education.
The Curriculum Network is primarily an educator network and is not intended as a membership platform for education suppliers or organisations wishing to use membership for commercial or promotional purposes.
Membership is completely free for educators. There are no products, subscriptions or other services available for members to purchase through The Curriculum Network website.
We reserve the right to refuse, suspend or terminate membership where we reasonably believe an account is being used inappropriately or contrary to these Terms & Conditions.
3. Member Accounts
Members are responsible for providing accurate information when registering and for keeping their account information up to date.
Members are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of their login details and should notify us if they believe their account has been accessed without their permission.
Members can use their account to update their personal details and communication preferences.
Members can close their membership and delete their account at any time. Members can also unsubscribe from our marketing emails using the unsubscribe link provided in our communications.
The handling and deletion of personal information following closure of an account is subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection legislation.
4. What The Curriculum Network Provides
The Curriculum Network provides members with access to a range of free education-related content, opportunities and activities.
These may include:
Articles and professional content
Podcasts
CPD and training
Online and in-person events
Webinars
Newsletters and communications
Research and opportunities to contribute to education sector discussions
Content and events created in partnership with other organisations
The services and opportunities available may change from time to time.
5. Events, Webinars and CPD
Members may register for free events, webinars, CPD and other activities organised through The Curriculum Network.
There is no penalty if a member registers for an event but is subsequently unable to attend.
Where appropriate, we may make recordings, materials or other post-event resources available to members who registered or to the wider network.
We reserve the right to make reasonable changes to an event, including its date, time, location, format, content or speakers. We may also postpone or cancel an event where necessary.
Where an event is recorded, attendees will be informed where appropriate.
6. Sponsored Content and Events
The Curriculum Network works with education suppliers and other organisations that may support or sponsor content, podcasts, events, CPD and other activities.
Where content or an activity is sponsored or promotional in nature, we will identify this where appropriate.
Sponsorship does not give a third party general access to Curriculum Network member information.
We will only share a member's personal details with a third party where the member has explicitly opted in to that sharing.
Further information about how we use and share personal information is provided in our Privacy Policy.
7. Content and Professional Information
The Curriculum Network aims to provide useful, relevant and high-quality content for education professionals.
Articles, podcasts, events, CPD, training and other materials are provided for general information and professional development purposes.
While we take reasonable steps to provide useful and appropriate content, we do not guarantee that all information will be complete, accurate, current or suitable for every school, education setting or individual circumstance.
Views expressed by contributors, speakers, podcast guests or other third parties are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of The Curriculum Network or The Education Company Limited.
Members remain responsible for their own professional judgements and decisions and for determining whether information or content is appropriate for their particular circumstances.
8. Member Contributions
We encourage members of The Curriculum Network to contribute to the network. This may include writing articles, appearing on podcasts, speaking at events, contributing to discussions or providing other content.
Content cannot currently be published directly to The Curriculum Network website by members. Contributions are submitted to The Curriculum Network and we decide whether and how they are published.
By agreeing to contribute content, you give The Education Company Limited permission to publish, reproduce, host, distribute and promote your contribution in connection with The Curriculum Network.
This includes permission to make reasonable editorial changes for purposes such as length, clarity, formatting, presentation and accuracy.
Where agreed with the contributor, we may use their name, job title, school or organisation and photograph in connection with their contribution.
We may promote contributions through The Curriculum Network website, emails, social media and other relevant channels.
Unless otherwise agreed, previously published contributions may remain available after a contributor closes their Curriculum Network membership.
Contributors retain ownership of their original content unless alternative arrangements are agreed separately.

The Curriculum Network name, branding, website design and content created by The Curriculum Network are owned by, or licensed to, The Education Company Limited.
Members are welcome to read, watch, listen to, download and share our publicly available content for reasonable personal and professional purposes.
