What teachers say

“Wonderful resources - the best CPD I have had in 13 years of teaching.”

“I have found some really useful resources - including presentations on things to check when marking the NEAs and the evidence which the moderators want to have clearly marked. If you haven't been to any of the NEA Together events, then this could be a really good option for you. It's pretty budget friendly as well.”

“I have to say it's a brilliant resource. It's very easy to navigate around the site & dip in and out of the sections that you want to use. Lots of excellent resources … I think the donation is worth it, especially to have all the resources in one place.”

    Once I have purchased my course how do I log in?

    When you purchase training, you are asked to give your direct email and contact details. This email is used to log you in. TYPE IT CAREFULLY.  

    • If someone is booking on your behalf, such as the school finance officer - make sure they add you as the guest/participant and give your correct email address
    • Its very important not to create multiple Cademy accounts. Just use your school email address. Otherwise it is difficult to log in and out of each email account and locate different courses.

    If the page will not load when you click on the START COURSE button or have a red box ERROR MESSAGE saying 'there was an issue loading the order'.  

    Seek help from your school IT SUPPORT, as this shows that your school FIREWALL is blocking the site locally.  You can test if your school is blocking your course by trying to access via:

    • your home internet connection, or
    • your phone using mobile data, not the school Wi-Fi

    If it works outside the school network, the next step would be to ask your school IT team to allow access to Cademy, especially:

    • cademy.io
    • api.cademy.io
    • *.cademy.io
