I'm currently employed as a Subject Leader of Religious Education, Philosophy and Ethics at an outstanding grammar school. I am currently reading a PhD in Philosophy, having obtained an MA in Philosophy of Religion and and a BA in Philosophy. The resources I create and sell are those I use myself. I aim for my lessons to include a range of activities and for students to not only learn about my subject, but find doing so interesting.
