The Organisation’s Connect Fee
We understand the financial pressures organisations are under, and we’re committed to keeping Team Teach Connect accessible with transparent and fair pricing. For 2025, the annual Team Teach Connect fee will reflect the size of your setting and the number of Team Teach-certified staff.

Here’s our new banded pricing structure:

This per setting fee ensures every certified individual in your setting can access Team Teach Connect’s award-winning Knowledge Hub resources and the Support Service.

How it works:

  • For existing customers, the fee will be calculated at your renewal date.
  • For new customers, it will be based on your first training event in 2025.

We’ve also worked hard to keep 2025 prices rising only in line with inflation, meaning no real-term increases. You’ll be able to enjoy the same high-quality content without additional financial strain.

As this is a per setting charge, every Team Teach certified individual in your setting can access Team Teach Connect. Team Teach Connect is a mandatory part of Team Teach training. Your staff require an active subscription for their Team Teach certificates to remain valid.
