Creativity lies at the heart of good teaching. The ability to be flexible, innovative and wise is the best way to succeed as a teacher in our ever-changing educational landscape.
After leaving headship, I founded Minerva Learning as a way to use my expertise and experience to inspire teachers to be confident, innovative and to always teach like experts. We owe it to the children in our schools to put teachers and teaching back at the heart of our profession.
We work with schools, trusts and networks across the UK, who want expert advice and support to find their own solutions to the unique issues they face, creating the very best curriculum through which their children can flourish. Contact us to see how we might work together.
