Our programmes

Clearly defined programmes, built around outcomes.

A proper catalogue, not a list of topics. Every programme sets out the need it addresses, what participants will learn, how it’s delivered, how progress is assessed and what the commissioning organisation receives — and can be adapted to different languages, literacy levels and cultural contexts without compromising the learning objectives.

Flagship programme

Social Integration, Equality & Everyday Life

Social norms · Women’s rights · Respectful relationships · Cultural awareness · Social etiquette

Helping newcomers understand the social expectations, shared civic values and interpersonal boundaries that shape everyday life. Through realistic scenarios, guided discussion and real-world examples — not lectures — participants build the knowledge and confidence to navigate social situations, respect individual rights and build positive relationships across different backgrounds.

This is civic education, not an attempt to erase anyone’s culture. It teaches UK law, gender equality, consent and shared civic responsibilities — aligned with GOV.UK and Equality and Human Rights Commission guidance — while respecting cultural and religious diversity. Where we deliver elsewhere in Europe, the legal material is adapted to each country’s law.

Learning outcomes
  • Understand equality between women and men under the law.
  • Recognise consent, personal boundaries and respectful behaviour.
  • Navigate common social situations — friendships, workplaces and public spaces.
  • Understand privacy, appropriate communication and social etiquette.
  • Recognise discrimination, harassment and coercive behaviour.
  • Develop an understanding of shared civic expectations while respecting cultural and religious diversity.

Women’s rights & gender equality

Equality under the law, equal opportunities, freedom of choice, and recognising discrimination or harassment.

Consent, boundaries & respectful relationships

Understanding consent, accepting rejection, respecting personal space, and everyone’s right to decide about their own body and relationships.

Social etiquette & everyday interactions

Greetings, queues, punctuality, conversational boundaries, noise in shared spaces and communicating with strangers and colleagues.

Communication across cultures

Interpreting social cues, handling misunderstandings, respecting different viewpoints and resolving disagreements without aggression.

Equality, safety & the law

Harassment, domestic abuse, coercive control and discrimination — and where to access confidential support, with clear referral pathways.

Community participation & shared responsibilities

Respecting difference, contributing to community life, and recognising the rights of others.

This catalogue sets out Settle’s programme areas and direction. Each programme’s curriculum, facilitators and delivery arrangements are confirmed per commission — and where a programme or language is still in development, we say so rather than promise it before it’s ready.

How it’s delivered

Three formats. One joined-up approach.

Facilitated workshops

Human-led, interactive sessions — in person or online — delivered in the participants’ own language and matched to your cohort.

The multilingual course

Our access-controlled learning app, available in 15+ languages, that people can work through at their own pace.

Participant materials

Structured, accessible resources in agreed languages and formats, used alone or alongside workshops and the course.

These are different products with different delivery requirements. We’ll show you how they work together, and are clear about anything still being built.

Evidence-informed design

The frameworks behind the curriculum.

Our programme design is informed by recognised international frameworks — used to shape the curriculum itself, not to decorate the page:

UK legal and civic content is aligned with GOV.UK and Equality and Human Rights Commission guidance. Across Europe, the material is adapted to each country’s law rather than treating the UK framework as universal.

Designed around your community. Built around clear outcomes.

Every community is different. We work with commissioning organisations to identify priorities, define learning objectives and shape programmes around the people they serve — whether that’s a standalone workshop, a coordinated series or a wider integration education programme.
