Teachers Gone Rogue

TEACHERS GONE ROGUE

A paradigm-shifting journey for educators rethinking
learning, power, and possibility.

You’re an educator who feels the system isn’t working.
Maybe you’re still in it, struggling with burnout, disillusionment, or pressure to conform.
Maybe you’ve already left - but you’re unsure how to do things differently.
Maybe you’re working in a self-directed learning space and feel the weight of old habits still lingering.

Wherever you are in your journey, this program is for you.

Teachers Gone Rogue is our flagship training and mentorship experience for educators who are ready to challenge what they’ve been taught and reimagine how we relate to young people - inside and outside of the conventional school system .

This isn’t just about changing what you do.
It’s about shifting how you see.
Shifting from control to consent. From coercion to collaboration. From burnout to balance.

Who this program is for

  • Teachers still in the system, but dreaming of something different

  • Former teachers seeking new ways to work with and support youth

  • Facilitators in self-directed learning spaces wanting to move beyond surface-level freedom and deepen their capacity for trust, consent, and creating sustainable, equity-rooted learning cultures.

  • Educators building new models who want guidance and community

    Whether you're at the edge of a leap or knee-deep in the unknown, this program will meet you where you are - and help you walk forward with clarity, courage, and support.

What you’ll experience

This is not a course. This is a process of becoming.
We’ll move through key shifts like:

  • Unlearning schoolishness and reclaiming your humanity

  • Practicing consent-based communication and culture-building

  • Creating environments rooted in trust, agency, and equity

  • Navigating power with young people in liberatory ways

  • Tending to your nervous system, your energy, your "why"

The program includes:

  • 12 months of deep engagement

  • Live trainings + on-demand resources

  • Group coaching

  • Personal mentorship

  • Peer community that actually gets it

  • Optional accreditation aligned with youth rights and SDE principles

You won’t just gain tools.
You’ll gain new eyes - and a new compass.

Built on what works

This program is grounded in the success of our Radical Learning Through Relationships (RLTR) pilot program, which ran in partnership with VELA and supported 10 SDE communities over 12 months.

The results:

  • 85% of educators reported reduced burnout

  • 100% felt more confident in learner-driven practices

  • 100% of learners showed emotional growth and autonomy

  • 97% of participants experienced stronger community relationships

  • 100% of parents felt empowered to support their children’s education

We believe…

  • That relationships are the foundation of learning

  • That you don’t have to do this alone

  • That we’re in a time of great change - and that what’s needed is radical, relational, and real

If you feel the pull… this is your invitation.
Come go rogue with us.

9. SDE Youth Rights Accreditation

For educators interested in deepening their commitment to learner autonomy and equity, we provide a pathway to SDE Youth Rights Accreditation.

This international accreditation recognizes educational communities that advocate for the equitability of young people and supports communities that are actively working to create safe, nurturing, and transparent learning spaces.

Through this process, educators not only create equitable environments but also gain recognition for their work, helping to bridge the gap between alternative models and conventional perceptions of education.
