Currently work in the Youth Justice Service developing programmes of intervention for young people in the service.
Past experience working as a teacher of Art and Graphics in a young offenders institute, teacher in alternative provision education specialising in SEMH & SEND, and mainstream secondary teacher of Design Technology and Art & Design.
I pride myself on creating visually appealing resources with interesting content that appeals to young people who are disengaged from education.

This is a very large booklet I designed for the boys I work with in a Young Offender’s Institute.
The booklet can either be self-directed or taught and contains a wide range of tasks, activities and information.
I have used a key to demonstrate cross-curricular pages.
There are opportunities for stretch & challenge tasks, as well as a wide range of written and practical activities.
I have tried to make the booklet colourful and interesting (my design side coming through).
Subjects covered include: graphic design, maths, English, geography, PSHE, as well as British Values.
I have uploaded the file as a PDF due to the size, however if a PowerPoint is required please do email me after purchase and we can arrange something (nataliesheldon86@outlook.com).
Feel free to ask me any questions!

Knowledge recap
It is designed to be used in one of three ways:
As a full programme / scheme of work - this can be fully printed into booklets (all pages printed)
As a full programme / scheme of work - with only the worksheets printed and the rest of the pages used as PowerPoint / visuals
As one off lessons / interventions - parts can be printed or used ad hoc
I have included a project overview at the start, with learning outcomes and descriptions of each task.
The resource is quite bulky and was created on a Mac. I have added to this resource a PDF and PowerPoint version. Due to differences in fonts, the PowerPoint version may look different when opened - hence including the PDF version as well to keep everything as designed.
Please feel free to ask any questions :)
