CPD & Training

Empowering educators • Building confidence • Enabling innovation

Why work with me?

I can deliver a range of standard or bespoke sessions to your school staff either with technology or based around engagement and team building. Whether is using EdTech across the curriculum to specific training with key departments or leadership to enhance the wider use of technology, my training sessions are designed to be informative but with an engaging fun aspect.

 

With all of my sessions there will be a pre-training call with school leadership to ensure that the session meets the required points to support your wider school piece. I have worked closely with a number schools to deliver training to meet their needs. When working with schools or leading events, I aim to only have one per day ensuring that I can focus as much of my time onto your school to achieve the best possible standard of training

 

Whilst not coming from a direct teaching background, working within the primary education space, leading lessons and support curriculum decisions has provided me a unique insight into how teaching and learning can be directly impacted with technology. All of my sessions have an element of ‘Geeky-ness’ in theme but my core aim is supporting teaching and learning and empowering everyone to achieve more with technology.
