IT USUALLY STARTS WITH ONE PERSON WHO SEES WHAT'S MISSING
BRING COMMON GROUND TO YOUR AREA
Common Ground is growing. School by school, city by city.
If you see the gap between what students are being taught and what the world will ask of them — we should talk.

Global
Common Ground is currently active in international schools in France. We are looking for the right people to carry it further.
FOUNDED
CURRENT BASE
AMBITION
YOU MIGHT BE
An independent educator or facilitator looking to build something with real structure
A creative professional — filmmaker, journalist, podcaster — who wants to bring your craft into learning
A parent or community leader who sees a need and wants to act on it
Someone who has been thinking about this and wants a framework, not a blank page
You don't need a plan. You need a reason.
TWO PATHS, ONE STARTING POINT.
Path 1
Path 2
Become a licensed facilitator
Open the first door
You are trained to deliver Common Ground independently: in schools, enrichment spaces, or community settings near you.
Your own practice, backed by a real framework.
You don't want to deliver it yourself but you know someone (or a place) who should hear about it.
Make the introduction. That contribution matters too.
Your language. Your students. Your environment. The methodology is yours to run.
That contribution matters too. And we take those conversations seriously.
Training before your first delivery
Full access to methodology, materials and cycle frameworks
Ongoing support and a community of practice with other facilitators
The freedom to adapt — your language, your students, your environment
YOU'RE NOT STARTING FROM ZERO
Every local facilitator and connector becomes part of the Common Ground network.
The programme grows because people like you carry it somewhere new.
What being part of the network means
Structure without rigidity.
Support without dependency.
You work within a proven framework — with the freedom to adapt it to your context. Common Ground doesn't franchise. It grows through people who genuinely believe in what it does.
