As a Schools‘ Publishing Service we develop curricula and publish learning content to be available
in a form that speaks of: quality, creative awareness and social responsibility: "For People and
Planet".
We work by invitation with a small number of independent and well-connected Trusts and
Foundations who are keen to support education: human-scale education, self-paced learning,
multi-cultural understanding and whole person development.
Our points of reference, the people who inspire us, the organisations whose values we share,
include: Schumacher College, Resurgence Magazine, University of Bristol – Dept of Environmental Sciences, Agora
Trust, The World Cafe, Transition Culture, Seven Generations, The Hub - and many others too numerous to mention!
