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 part of an ongoing project I am developing. As I complete parts of it, I will upload them individually and eventually as a full bundle.
The pages contain mini factfiles about each design movement, with key artists / designers and information. They are designed to be cut out (black outlines).
Perfect printed as a display, used laminated as flashcards, used to encourage students to put the movements in order, or made into a mini booklet for reference
I have used a Mac to create this resource so I have uploaded both a PDF and PowerPoint file, as I often find some fonts and formatting are a bit off when opened on certain computers!
Feel free to ask any 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 LO2: Understand how hospitality and catering provisions operate
L1 - The Catering Kitchen
L2 - COSHH and Health & Safety
L3 - Kitchen Design Features & Stock Control
L4 - Large Kitchen Equipment
L5 - Small Kitchen Equipment & Chefs Uniform
L6 - Front of House Operations (Workflow, Equipment, Uniform)
L7 - Documentation, Administration, Safety, Security & Risk Assessments
L8 - Create an Establishment (AfL opportunity, summarises all the knowledge taught so far in LO1 / LO2. Contains differentiated booklet for LPA students, would also work as a cover lesson!)
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).
Any questions please ask me :)
I created a huge number of Artist research factsheets during my PGCE. The information for these was all found on the internet (please note I have not reworded any, merely copied and pasted). The idea behind the factsheets was to have a bank of resources for reference, both for myself and for students.
I have printed all of these out and have them in separate folders (relating to style of art/design). I have made great use of them during my time teaching in a young offenders institute, and the learners like to select their own designers for inspiration to develop their ideas.
This bundle contains: Graphic Designers
I also will be uploading:
Photographers, Installation Artists, 3D Artists, Street / Graffiti Artists, Conceptual Artists, Illustrators, Traditional and Modern Fine Artists and Textiles based Artists.
Feel free to contact me with any questions
I created these resources during my time working as a Teaching Assistant in a school with a large majority of EAL learners. We held an EAL focused day and I provided resources for the creative subjects - Art & Design and Design & Technology.
The resources include -
Key words (that can be laminated and used in reference to equipment in the classroom)
Worksheets relating to logos (a bit of fun), and colour
Hello sheet in different languages
Please feel free to contact me with any questions!
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 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 > THIS RESOURCE
Designers X Sneakers
Rappers X Sneakers
Brands X Sneakers
Extension Tasks

This is part of an ongoing project I am developing. As I complete parts of it, I will upload them individually and eventually as a full bundle.
Each page of this upload is a different design movement and contains modern imagery that is influenced / inspired by the design movement, along with key words.
Perfect printed as a display, put into a book, or used as printed inspiration pages for students.
I have used a Mac to create this resource so I have uploaded both a PDF and PowerPoint file, as I often find some fonts and formatting are a bit off when opened on certain computers!
