Edapt

Education union alternative for teachers and school staff

All teachers and school staff want to be supported and protected in their profession but not all identify as trade unionists.

Since 2012, Edapt has offered an apolitical, independent alternative to traditional trade union membership for teachers and school staff seeking protection and support in employment disputes and other professional challenges.

Unlike unions, Edapt focuses solely on specialised education and employment law support and 24/7 mental health counselling without requiring involvement in political activities. Our service is distinguished by the use of professionally qualified caseworkers rather than volunteers, ensuring high-quality, objective advice and timely assistance. From quick queries to full representation at tribunals, Edapt stands by its subscribers: protection without politics.
