I am a passionate and experienced teacher and school leader. I qualified as a Secondary Science and A Level Biology, although quickly found my love for SEN and have made my career since mostly in a wonderful, outstanding (for 5 consecutive inspections) secondary SEN school. I have remained there aside from a year in an incredible SEN Primary, learning an incredible amount. I have just recently returned to classroom after 15 years of a Leadership role (Deputy Head, with included 15 successful months as an interim Head over the Covid period). I have always been a science specialist, but have an interest in literacy and am currently covering English which has proved a massive delight. Stepping back has allowed me to devote more time to my side project, resources for which are shared here. I am personally inspired by nature and so created Living World Education to make and share resources which I firmly believe should be free to ensure widest access and an interest in nature.
