I've been teaching for just over 10 years now (you wouldn't believe how quickly that time as gone) and am a Head of Department at an outstanding school in the south of London.
I have consistently high examination results and want to share my resources with experienced teachers and those who are new to the profession. Planning lessons and creating resources takes a huge amount of time so why not use the experience of other teachers out there?
