I work in a specialist mental health setting. I create a range of resources for the 'core subjects' (English, Maths and ICT), often aimed at making subjects more accessible for people with learning difficulties or those who have been out of Education a long time.

A resource that uses Excel Spreadsheets with embedded PowerPoints to allow students to explore ‘number stories’ based on two simple number sequences. One looks at the Fibonnaci sequence and uses Excel to calculate the sequence and create a pie chart that reflects a Fibonnaci spiral. The other looks at the ‘One Grain of Rice’ story and uses Excel to calculate the number of rice grains, bowls, etc.

A display showing twenty prominent people of colour who have an involvement in the history of computing. A great resource for Black History Month. It’s particularly important to me that this resource has a high number of women, encouraging the visibility of both women and people of colour.
