Iridium Education

I wish you a very warm welcome to our website. I am a practising teacher who has over 20 years experience in the secondary education sector, my specialist subject being science. Currently, I hold the position of Deputy Headteacher in an 11-16 secondary school with responsibility for curriculum development. Since being a senior leader, I have gained significant experience in leading whole school professional development and the quality assurance of the quality of education. I have been awarded a distinction in a master’s degree in Educational Leadership and in doing so have carried out research relating to curriculum and social justice. I strongly believe in: Creating an engaging, challenging curriculum which allows all children to flourish and achieve their potential. Providing high quality professional development which allows staff to improve performance in the classroom. An education system that empowers learners and promotes social justice. Promoting social justice is the intrinsic drive behind everything I do, and is one of the core values behind the Iridium Education philosophy. Iridium Education strive to make a difference through: Creating and delivering effective training events that offer practical solutions that support practitioners in their day-to-day role and thereby shaping the educational experience for our young people. Creating and delivering well thought out workshops, which aim to engage children, inspire a curiosity for science and develop the skills and knowledge to enable them to question the world around them. Building children’s confidence and attainment through providing reasonably priced tuition.
