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.

This is one of a series of worksheets and factsheets I have created relating to Sneaker Collaborations.
Each worksheet & factsheet set will be uploaded and available individually, and I will also offer it as a bundle (which would make a great project in Art / Design Technology / Fashion / Graphic Design).
The sheets introduce lesser-known artists and designers, and feature on-trend sneaker styles.
These sheets would be great either as a project, cover work, homework tasks, or self-directed tasks! The possibilities are endless!
The worksheet combinations include:
Artists X Sneakers
Designers X Sneakers > THIS RESOURCE
Rappers X Sneakers
Brands X Sneakers
Extension Tasks
Feel free to ask me any questions.

A series of displays I created for my classroom
Colour theories, Pantone and Swiss Design
I use these in my young offender Graphic Design classroom but they would work in any creative environment
A very simple cover lesson I designed for KS3 classes to set as cover in D&T.
The theme of the lesson is logo designs and this self-explanatory sheet works well for non-specialist teachers.
Feel free to ask me any questions.
These are a series of design movement influences sheets created for a unit of work that I am currently producing.
The unit of work is based around graphic illustration and the resources provide a series of design movements and explain how they have influenced illustration.
I will be laminating these for reference in class, however they would also work well on a display board.
I will also include these in the full resource for the NCFE Level 2 Certificate in Creative Media (Graphic Design) - Unit 08
Feel free to ask me any questions!
This is a cover lesson I set for my KS3 Year 7 class who were in the Resistant Materials stage of their curriculum.
A very simple lesson that requires computers for the best possible outcomes.
Feel free to ask any questions.
I have started to create a bank of worksheets focusing on various designers / artists / illustrators. These stem from my initial design movement worksheets (also available on my account).
I use these worksheets to introduce young offenders (15-18) to a range of designers and artists. These worksheets could also be left as cover, or even set as a homework task to build learner knowledge and understanding. Each worksheet has two parts, the information sheet and the corresponding worksheet.
This bundle contains:
Aurelio Sanchez
Elena Gumeniuk
Rachel Bungey
Jimmy Turrell (X4 sheets)
I have tried to look at some more obscure and unusual examples to broaden knowledge for learners.
I will continue to upload bundles of between 5 and 10 sheets as I create them.
Please feel free to ask me any questions! Happy to make changes if needed :)
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
Colourful and interesting literacy in Art & Design word mat
I designed this to be used alongside the NCFE Graphic Design & Art & Design qualifications, however it would also work for KS3 and KS4 in mainstream schools.
Contains key words, connectives, punctuation, command words, sentence starters and homophones
I have also created a numeracy mat in a similar style
I have laminated these and they are available for my learners in a folder in the classroom. They could also be stuck to desks or inserted into portfolios to support with annotation and theory work.
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.

This is a mini booklet that I have created for the boys I work with in the Young Offenders Institute.
It is 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 - Textiles, at KS3-KS4.
This set focuses on the theme of circus. I will also be creating a number of other booklets / worksheet sets in a similar style.
Feel free to contact me with any questions and feedback!
This is a booklet that I have created for the boys I work with in the Young Offenders Institute.
It is designed to be self-directed, but can also be used as part of classroom teaching.
This is perfect for learners studying any course at KS4 or Year 9 minimum.
The focus of the booklet is gun crime in the United States. The booklet makes reference to geography skills and graphic design skills, with literacy encouraged throughout the booklet in the form of questions and answers.
I decided to create this booklet after watching some of the Louis Theroux documentaries on Netflix (around gun crime in the United States). These would be a potentially great add-on to the booklet.

This is an assessment grid I designed and adapted to use in different areas of Design Technology
This one is for KS3 - a Pop Up Card Graphic project
It was set as a homework task, with the idea being that the students recall knowledge from the start of the project as well as more recent knowledge, with the school’s stamps system offered as rewards for achieving the harder questions

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 resource is from LO3: Understand how hospitality and catering provision meets health and safety requirements
L1 - Introduction to Health & Safety Laws and Documentation
L2 - COSHH
L3 - RIDDOR
L4 - Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
L5 - Manual Handling
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).
