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.

Knowledge recap
It is designed to be used in one of three ways:
As a full programme / scheme of work - this can be fully printed into booklets (all pages printed)
As a full programme / scheme of work - with only the worksheets printed and the rest of the pages used as PowerPoint / visuals
As one off lessons / interventions - parts can be printed or used ad hoc
I have included a project overview at the start, with learning outcomes and descriptions of each task.
The resource is quite bulky and was created on a Mac. I have added to this resource a PDF and PowerPoint version. Due to differences in fonts, the PowerPoint version may look different when opened - hence including the PDF version as well to keep everything as designed.
Please feel free to ask any questions :)
