Become a free member of the NRC and NCVO
Join the movement!
Membership is free of charge (For NCVO, free membership is only available to supplementary schools with a turnover of less than £100.000 per annum. For organisations with an annual income of over £50.000, membership is offered free for the first year only).
Join the NRC today and help give a voice to the supplementary education sector. You can contribute to research and policy that will make a real difference to supplementary schools. By joining, you’ll get access to a wide range of free materials, like a funding database and discounts on resources, like books and stationery that will help you manage and run your supplementary school successfully.
Find out more about the benefits of membership, including membership of the NCVO.
As a member of the NRC, and by signing the Code of Practice for Supplementary Schools, you make a commitment to providing good teaching, effective planning, a safe environment and sound management. You can then work towards Quality Framework Awards at Bronze, Silver and Gold levels, and become eligible for National Excellence Awards.
At this stage, membership is open to supplementary schools based in England only.
How do I apply?
Please complete the membership application form. There are three formats:
If you choose the Word or PDF version, please post or fax it to us. If you choose the online form, it will be automatically emailed to us.
Whichever format you choose, don't forget to complete the code of practice form too (at the end of the membership form) as this is an essential part of your membership application.
The NRC is not a regulatory body. This membership is based on trust. If we discover that you are not a supplementary school or if you provide fraudulent information you will immediately be removed as a member.
