Local Branch, Hub and Network Leaders

Joining ALL can be your passport to networking with active ALL members near you. Local ALL groups are run by volunteers - often
teachers supporting other teachers - to provide encouragement and support, and to overcome the risk of professional isolation. ALL
groups offer a warm welcome, either in person or online, and foster collaboration and sharing of expertise and ideas.

There are many regional ALL groups all around England offering formal and informal events, discussion, networking, sharing tips and
resources, themed training and upskilling. There is also an ALL Cymru Network and a network in Northern Ireland.
Would you like to start your own group? For further information or advice, please contact [email protected]

ALL refers to its less formal local groups as Networks and Primary Hubs, while Branches are a more formal part of our constitution.

ALL Branch

Branches are formally constituted groups which are run by a committee of elected local members. Branches serve a larger regional area and often have annual conferences with streams for specific sectors and career stages.

ALL Network

Networks are more informal local groups, often operating in areas where the nearest branch is some distance away.

ALL Primary Hub

Primary Hubs are places where local teachers involved in developing primary language teaching can meet, exchange ideas and provide peer support as well as accessing information and support.

Which group can I join?

Members may attend events of any ALL group. New members are allocated to an active ALL group near the address given on your membership application, but you can join a different group if this is more convenient. If you would prefer to be part of a group which is not in your region please contact the ALL office to discuss.

What if there's not a group in my area?

ALL local groups are run by dedicated and passionate volunteers. If there's no local group in your area, and you're interested in getting more involved with ALL and becoming a volunteer, read more about the process of setting up a new ALL local group.

Contact the ALL office to express your interest. We can then draw on the expertise of our volunteer members and our Honorary Membership Officer to get you started!
