Practical CPD.
With a bit of personality.
Helping teachers love teaching, and children love being part of their classroom.
Professional development and conversations about teaching, grounded in the classroom and delivered by someone who knows what 4.45pm on a Tuesday feels like.
The classroom
they remember.
You do not need to become a different person to become a brilliant teacher.
The Classroom They Remember is designed primarily for early career teachers (ECTs) in primary schools. It explores how your personality, relationships, routines and small shared traditions can help you build a classroom that feels steady, connected and recognisably yours.
My starting point is more than eleven years in primary education, including class teaching, year group leadership and mentoring trainees and ECTs.
Details of the next sessions will appear here. In the meantime, I’d be glad to hear what your school, trust or event has in mind.
Steady. Known. Ours.
The feel of
the room
How routines, expectations and small shared traditions shape the atmosphere children experience every day.
Relationships
& boundaries
Warmth, consistency and clear boundaries that help pupils feel known while allowing you to remain yourself.
Personality,
professionally
Using your humour, calmness, curiosity and interests as strengths in your teaching.
A staff session.
A stage.
A conversation.

Practical.
Human.
No sugar paper.
Real classroom stories, useful examples, carefully chosen research and time to think.
My approach leaves room for questions and quiet reflection. Participation should help you learn, not make you wish you’d sat nearer the exit.
Dates, formats and fees will be agreed for each enquiry. This page is not an automatic booking or confirmation.
