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 these slips for learners on my course to demonstrate how they have embedded literacy and/or numeracy into their graphic design
This is a big push within young offender learning and it helps the learners to understand the relevance of core subjects within pathways and the real world
Happy to edit the PDF for other subject areas - please just contact me!
A series of worksheets (all in one PDF) created to develop learner understanding of colour theory and colour schemes.
The worksheets have been designed for use in a young offender institute, and so the subject is aimed at teenage boys.
These would work as a cover lesson, homework or taught lesson activity.
Feel free to ask any questions.
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.
This is a PowerPoint presentation I created for a job interview a while ago.
It is based on Perspective Drawing (one and two) and is Art & Design focused.
Feel free to ask 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.
This is lesson 1 in a KS3 (year 8) Food project I have written.
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.
As I create the lessons, I will upload them individually. Once I have the full scheme of work uploaded, I will create a bundle!
L1 - Bacteria & Food Poisoning
Please note: 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 :)
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
This is a worksheet I created when teaching KS3 Resistant Materials. The classes I taught were mixed ability and I have made this activity differentiatable as a result.
I delivered the activity by first discussing each piece of equipment with the class and showing them the physical object. You then have two options: cut and stick the definitions by pairing them up (used for EAL, SEN and lower ability) or by writing the definitions in the correct boxes.
This works well as a small group activity and as a competition!
Feel free to ask any questions.
This is a COSHH worksheet I designed for my KS4 WJEC Hospitality & Catering students.
I am also uploading all of my WJEC designed lessons for Hospitality & Catering as I get round to sorting them.

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.
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!

These resources are from my PGCE. I taught Art & Design to a mixed ability Y8 group and chose to teach them about one point perspective and architecture.
I have included the SOW plus any resources I created, unfortunately I never got to fully see the unit through, however the group really enjoyed the topic.
Feel free to ask me any questions, I would love to hear from anyone that uses it!
