REVIEWS
‘Absolutely brilliant and it has really helped get my head around the ‘spec’ wording and what it means. Lots of ideas to implement – I just wish I had been able to do it a year ago when I swapped to D&T!
I am going back to school with much more confidence of the delivery of the course and can’t wait for exiting pupil outcomes. Thank you!’
‘A very informative online course. Rachel Addy gave us lots of information on assessments and inspiration on how to deliver content in an inspirational way. Highly recommended.’
