Lyfta
Lyfta
Lyfta was founded to give learners and educators access to meaningful learning experiences from all over the world, showing them how interconnected and interdependent we are, and helping them to develop a deeper sense of belonging in themselves, their communities, and the world we live in. Lyfta is an award-winning educational platform offering awe-inspiring storyworlds created by an Oscar-winning team. Inside every Lyfta storyworld you can interact with and learn from 360° spaces, rich media, soundscapes and powerful short documentaries showing diverse cultures and ways of life that bring curriculum topics to life. Schools and trusts love using Lyfta to enhance their cultural capital curriculum, bring in DEIB, character building, sustainability and global citizenship education, and to nurture social & emotional learning.
An organisation dedicated to improving student outcomes and rooted in evidence-informed pedagogy, Lyfta offers a powerful and accessible tool to navigate and learn from diverse perspectives, build empathy, and support personal development.
Lyfta is made possible thanks to our talented, global filmmaking community, whom we collaborate with to deliver the best films and educational experiences to our community of students and educators. Many of our filmmakers come from the communities they showcase, amplifying local voices and ensuring authenticity. This is what sets Lyfta apart from other educational platforms, and ensures we have a broad range of stories, topics, and perspectives.
We want to create a world where everyone thrives – where education is not just informative but transformative, leading to human flourishing on an intrapersonal, interpersonal, societal and global level.

DisabilityEdUK
DisabilityEdUK
Disability is often the forgotten characteristic and there are widely held negative assumptions made about disabled people. At DisabilityEdUK we want to support disabled educators to be fully contributing members in education in every role and at every level of leadership. We believe that school leaders have an important role to play in making the disabled workforce in education more accessible and representative of disabled educators everywhere which is why leadership development is a central aspect of our organisation.
- educate people to challenge their own biases and assumptions about disabled people.
- raise awareness of the ableism, stigma and inequity that disabled people experience.
- provide leadership development to school leaders so that they are disability aware, and can
fully understand and deliver reasonable adjustments that make educational settings are accessible for all. - Challenge the deficit model of disability and promote the skills and talents of disabled
people in education.
Who we are
We recognise that as a group of women our only diversity is the difference in our disabilities and we are working on increasing representation this year:
- Ruth Golding: Chronic Illness Physical Disability, Mental Health
- Lyn Haynes: Ally, ITT & Reasonable Adjustments
- Vivienne Porritt: Chronic Illness
- Laura McConnell: Neurodiversity
- Cat Salt: Neurodiversity, Mental Health
- Maria Turkenburg Ally, ITT & Reasonable Adjustments
- Liz Wright: DisabilityEdUk Ambassador - Physical Disability/Limb Difference
DisabilityEdUK…reasonably adjusting attitudes!

Disability
Disability
Disability
A person has a disability if one has a physical or mental impairment, and the impairment has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on a person’s ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities. A reference to a disabled person is a reference to a person who has a disability; a reference to a person who has a particular protected characteristic is a reference to a person who has a particular disability; a reference to persons who share a protected characteristic is a reference to persons who have the same disability.
How can we ensure that people with disabilities are treated fairly and feel like they belong in our schools?
