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.

I created this resource for the delivery of the NCFE Level 1 Certificate in Art & Design (Unit 02).
The activity is very interactive, encouraging the learners to cut out the various examples of the formal elements within art and graphic design and then match them up in the boxes with the names & definitions.
There is also the answer sheet included, and this can be used as a display or laminated for reference in lessons.
I have used this resource with young offenders and it proved highly successful. It can also be used as a recap to check learner understanding.
A PDF containing a range of portrait photographers with examples of their work.
I designed this to inspire GCSE Year 10 pupils at a previous school.
I have also added an abstract photographer PDF file as well (separate upload)
A PowerPoint I created for KS3 (year 7) Food & Nutrition.
Based around the Eat Well Guide and follows on to a healthy pasta salad recipe to make in the next lesson.
Also included: blank Eat Well Guide and Deli Salad Recipe plan - colour coded to help pupils relate it back to the guide.
Works really well with mixed ability groups and is a colourful lesson!
Feel free to ask me any questions
This is a full UPDATED FOR 2019/20 ACADEMIC YEAR unit of work for the NCFE Level 1 Award in Graphic Design. I wrote it to deliver within a young offender setting and it works really well for 15-18 year old learners that are low ability.
I have included pretty much all of the corresponding worksheets for the unit in this bulk resource.
Prior to me writing the qualification, I found very little resources for the NCFE quals so hopefully this will support others now!
I have also uploaded:
Unit 01 - Visual (this unit)
Unit 02 - Influential
Unit 03 - Rebrand
Unit 04 - Create
NCFE Level 2 Certificate / Diploma in Creative Media (Graphic Design)
Unit 02 - Minimalist
Unit 04 - Typo
Unit 07 - Communicate
Unit 08 - Illustrate (this resource)
The NCFE EQA approves of the formatting for the unit booklets and finds them very easy to quality assure.
Feel free to message me with any questions.
I have recently modified the resources to remove all youth justice reference. If you require any changes, please feel free to contact me nataliesheldon86@outlook.com
I have created a bundle for the full NCFE Level 1 Award in Graphic Design units.
This bundle contains resources, booklets etc. for Units 01-04
These have been updated for 2019/20 delivery.
The units have been designed by myself for delivery in a young offenders institute. I find them very popular and have seen good success rates with them.

A series of design movement worksheets I have created for use in my lessons. I use these alongside the NCFE Level 1/2 in Graphic Design, however they would work well in KS3 and GCSE curriculum, perhaps as a homework task.
Would suit Art & Design, Graphic Design and Design Technology subject areas.
Have also uploaded some more Graphic/Design/Technology based worksheets of the same style.
This resource is something I designed to help embed literacy within my qualification.
The front of the resource contains a highly colourful range of examples to demonstrate the formal elements in Art and visual elements in Graphic Design.
The back of the resource contains:
Support for annotating work (with bullet points to encourage thinking)
Sentence starters to help reflect on positives about a piece of their design/art
Sentence starters to help reflect on areas to improve about a piece of their design/art
Sentence starters to help reflect on things the learner does not like about about a piece of their design/art
I chose to laminate these (double sided) and each learner has one in their folder to use as a point of reference if required. They would also work laminated and stuck to tables or even made larger and displayed on classroom walls.
This is a series of worksheets and information sheets that I have created for the boys I work with in the Young Offenders Institute.
They are designed to be self-directed, but can also be used as part of classroom teaching.
This is perfect for learners studying Graphic Design, Art, or Design & Technology, at KS3-KS4.

This list is not exhaustive, I will be creating worksheets regularly and will update the list as and when.
I have numbered the tasks to eventually collate them into a full booklet. I will be uploading the tasks and info in subjects (see above). Once I have created and uploaded them all I will create a bundle as well. I will also be creating a checklist so that as each sheet is completed, they can be ticked off.
Feel free to contact me with any questions and feedback!
I will be continually adding similar resources as I produce them.
**I have uploaded these as PDFs due to the large file sizes and to avoid any of the elements moving on the designs. If you require an editable copy, please email me nataliesheldon86@outlook.com **

It is designed to be self-directed, but can also be used as part of classroom teaching.
This is perfect for learners studying at KS3 or 4.
The focus of the booklet is creative typography. It provides learners with tasks, information and stretch and challenge activities.
It would work well as cover work, extended homework, or even during lessons as an introduction to typography.

This is a resource I have created for my current setting: I work in an alternative provision for excluded young people and I have identified a large number that have difficulties with appropriate social interactions and social skills
This resource would work for KS3-4
The pages can be modified to suit individual settings
These can be used on a display and referred to throughout the day to support with the social skills of young people
I will be uploading a range of interventions / emotional literacy resources over the upcoming weeks

These are a series of worksheets and information I have collated into a full project.
The theme of the project is MASKS & IDENTITY

Cultural Map
Day of the Dead
Drill Music
Festima
Filipino Dinagyang
Halloween
Music
Superheroes
Symmetry
Venetian Carnival
Each upload contains a PowerPoint and PDF. I created the resources on a MacBook and sometimes Windows PowerPoint can open the fonts and formatting slightly off, so I wanted to offer both versions! You can also edit the PowerPoint to make it suitable for the students you teach.
Please feel free to ask any questions
This is part of an ongoing project I am developing. As I complete parts of it, I will upload them individually and eventually as a full bundle.
The pages contain mini factfiles about each design movement, with key artists / designers and information. They are designed to be cut out (black outlines).
Perfect printed as a display, used laminated as flashcards, used to encourage students to put the movements in order, or made into a mini booklet for reference
I have used a Mac to create this resource so I have uploaded both a PDF and PowerPoint file, as I often find some fonts and formatting are a bit off when opened on certain computers!
