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.

A series of key words / terminology displayed in categories relating to Art & Design, Photography and Graphic Design
Taken from the AQA GCSE website
Perfect blown up on display - can be copied onto coloured paper for effect, or even placed in sketchbooks as a daily reference
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.
NCFE Level 1 Award in Graphic Design command words display / poster
I designed this to display on my wall to help learners with the command words commonly used, to ensure they successfully meet the assessment criteria
Also relevant for GCSE Art & Design - happy to edit the document, please just message me!
A series of resources I designed for a KS3 (Year 8) mixed ability Art & Design class.
The theme of the scheme of work was African Plank Masks
Resources included: starter, two homework tasks, artist study and presentation with basic stages
Feel free to ask me any questions
I tended to group learners strategically to support with SEN, behavioural difficulties and to challenge those that are higher ability
This is a full UPDATED FOR 2019/20 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
Unit 02 - Influential
Unit 03 - Rebrand
Unit 04 - Create (this unit)
and will be adding L2 units as I create them.
The NCFE EQA approves of the formatting for the unit booklets and finds them very easy to quality assure.

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 2 Certificate in Creative Media (Graphic Design) units.
This bundle contains resources, booklets etc. for Units 02, 04, 07, 08. Completion of all four units allows the learner to achieve the full certificate. I am currently working on units to allow completion of the full diploma.
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 Art based worksheets of the same style.
A poster I designed to support learners on the NCFE qualifications and to help them understand the expectations within different learning objectives and assessment criteria.
I have also uploaded a Performing Arts and Graphic Design version.
I have started to create my own resources for Unit 01. As I create the lessons, I will upload them individually. Once I have a full Learning Objective uploaded, I will create a bundle!
PLEASE NOTE: The Food & Nutrition resources were all designed in the 2020-21 academic year when I taught this subject. I have since left the role and have not been back and checked for any links that no longer work.
This is the FULL BUNDLE for LO1: Understand the environment in which hospitality and catering providers operate

Please note: The majority of the lessons are designed with online learning in mind, due to the current circumstances. They are easily adapted however, to work when practical lessons are back up and running!
If the formatting is off when you download it, this may be due to my font choice, I apologise in advance (Century Gothic).
Any questions please ask me :)

This is a resource I have created for my current setting: I work in an alternative provision for excluded young people. Some of the young people struggle with changes to their routine and like to see visually what they are going to be doing during the day
This resource would work for KS3-4
This can be laminated and reused, or a new copy used each time.
The resource has relevant things for my setting, but this can easily be modified to link to individual settings - let me know if you need help with this
I will be uploading a range of interventions / emotional literacy resources over the upcoming weeks
Feel free to message me with any questions
A very simple key words match-up activity based on Op Art. Perfect for a starter activity, or even to use at the end of a lesson to check learning has taken place.
This bundle contains the final assessment feedback for:
