I have spent over 30 years in education working in many different roles from teaching assistant to mainstream class teacher, senior leader within several special needs schools, Headteacher of an all-age special needs school and finally an independent consultant.
Alongside the practitioner roles in my spare time, I spent nearly 20 years as a researcher. I completed a master's degree, a PhD in Special Education, presented nationally/internationally at conferences and became a published author of my research. I have just written a book on the teaching of reading to all learners, due in March!
I am passionate about making a positive difference to the lives, attitudes and outcomes of those who may struggle to learn. I have learnt that it is only through a change in the culture of the adults that we can really make a difference to the opportunities for all children and young adults.
I have worked from national to grass root level government offices, local NGOs from their establishment to full operation, International NGOs and professional Association. I have experience in advising the establishment and operation of Civil Society Organization, organizing training, conference and workshops. I produced unpublished documents: “The Life in Aid”, “Periodic Displacement and Enduring Peace”, “Community Based Learning Guide”, “Home Based Study for Children in Scholastic Difficulties”, “Conference Planning and Management”, “Community Action in Development”, “The Role Women in Family Families Malaria Prevention and Treatment Practices” and “Children Rights and Strength”.
