It is a Society run by teachers for teachers. SATIPS is a member based professional support body for teachers, schools and teaching assistants in independent schools in the UK and worldwide.

SATIPS is dedicated to providing information on best practice directly to our members, delivering the best personal development courses and commissioning research to provide detailed information on how teaching can become even better.

What we do

We aim to support our members as they strive to provide quite exceptional teaching – UK and worldwide – whether in the private or public sector.

We produce regular subject broadsheets which are a superb, practical resource for schools.

We run a wide range of conferences and practical inset courses which are cost effective for schools and superbly practical.

The programme is developed in line with current developments in the education world and with reference to school demand.

Packed full of up to the minute articles from leading members of the education community, it is an inclusive publication and the editor Paul Jackson welcomes the news and views from all sectors of the prep and junior world.
