Private Contact, Clearly Explained
Two ways to begin a conversation.
Both routes use the same private Education Influence inbox. The difference is who may start each kind of conversation.
Direct message
Official Influencers initiate
Only green-tick members can start an ordinary direct message. Every member can receive and reply to a conversation already in their inbox.
Service request
Any signed-in member can enquire
Use Request service to send a structured enquiry even if you are not verified. The educator then replies through the same secure Messages inbox.
Community Charter
Useful work. Respectful conduct. Trustworthy recognition.
Education Influence is a professional community. Every member agrees to contribute responsibly and help protect the trust that makes the network valuable.
Use your own work, credit sources, obtain permission for images and never publish plagiarised material.
Be respectful, accurate and safeguarding-aware. Protect personal information and do not use the platform for spam, harassment or misleading claims.
Recognition is earned through useful contributions, not bulk uploads. Content and accounts may be reviewed, corrected, unpublished or removed when standards are not met.
