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.

I created this programme for use with young people in contact with the Youth Justice Service, however I previously taught in mainstream secondary and alternative provisions and definitely feel this would be perfect for any setting.

I have uploaded a PDF and PowerPoint version of the file
This is a full UPDATED FOR 2019/20 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
Unit 02 - Influential (this unit)
Unit 03 - Rebrand
Unit 04 - Create
and will be adding L2 units as I create them.
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

This is an assessment I created to check progress and gaps in knowledge for KS4 students of the WJEC Hospitality & Catering course
The resource contains the assessment, which is printer friendly, as well as all answers in PowerPoint format to allow for whole class revision and marking
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.
The assessment contains questions from all of the UNIT 01 LOs
Please feel free to ask any questions
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: Photographers
I also will be uploading:
Textiles Artists, Graphic Designers, 3D Artists, Street / Graffiti Artists, Conceptual Artists, Illustrators, Traditional and Modern Fine Artists and Installation Artists.

I created these key word displays and laminated them for use in my classroom. They can also be used laminated as small reference cards.
I tried to make the words visually appealing and creative, in order to inspire and help learners recognise key words and their definitions.
These work well in a secure setting, however I have no doubt that they would also work in mainstream education.

This is a very large booklet I designed for the boys I work with in a Young Offender’s Institute.
The booklet can either be self-directed or taught and contains a wide range of tasks, activities and information.
I have used a key to demonstrate cross-curricular pages.
There are opportunities for stretch & challenge tasks, as well as a wide range of written and practical activities.
I have tried to make the booklet colourful and interesting (my design side coming through).
Subjects covered include: graphic design, maths, English, geography, PSHE, as well as British Values.
I have uploaded the file as a PDF due to the size, however if a PowerPoint is required please do email me after purchase and we can arrange something (nataliesheldon86@outlook.com).

This Stop & Search programme is designed for use with children and young people who have been / or are likely to be stopped and searched by the police.
It can be used by staff in Youth Offending Teams for young people on court orders or prevention programmes, and by youth workers, Early Help and other social care officers, teachers and school staff and staff in secure settings.
This programme is designed to be run in order, with key information linked to stop and search, along with relevant activities that help meet the AQA criteria. The booklet can be printed as a whole, or you have the option to print individual worksheets and to use the PowerPoint digitally.
Completion of this programme can lead to ONE AQA Unit Award Scheme Accreditation.
For the AQA, certain tasks must be completed. If the full Stop & Search programme is completed, with all tasks, then the linked AQA can be claimed for!
On successful completion of this programme, young people will have met the following overall learning objectives:
• To identify existing knowledge relating to Stop & Search
• To develop an understanding of Stop & Search, from the perspective of the WYP
• To understand terminology linked to stop & search
• To understand personal rights when you are subject to a stop & search
• To understand personal rights when you are subject to a strip search
• To identify suitable locations for different forms of stop & search
• To develop understanding of the GO WISELY mnemonic
• To understand the short & long-term impacts Stop & Search can have on individuals
• To identify issues with police decisions to Stop & Search certain types of people based on their individual characteristics
• To identify differences between stop & search / account
• To understand the history of stop & search powers
• To identify and compare stop & search with stop & account
• To identify differences between lawful and unlawful searches
• To identify examples of lawful and unlawful stop & searches
• To understand how young people feel when they are stopped & searched
• To understand the impact of stop & search on minority ethnic groups
• To reflect on and discuss data linked to stop & search
• To understand the processes involved in a formal complaint
• To understand where to go to seek further information or advice
• To understand ways to strengthen a complaint
• To demonstrate knowledge linked to stop & search
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 resource I have created as part of my new role working as a Youth Justice Worker with young people in the community.
The project covers in detail:
County Lines
Child Criminal Exploitation
It is designed to be used in one of two 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 :)
