I am currently an Associate Professor in Learning and Teaching at The University of Hertfordshire where I lead the teaching of science and art to the undergraduate and postgraduate trainee teachers.
I am also an author and educational consultant at Creative Primary Science (https://www.creativeprimaryscience.com/) working with teachers and children on science, drama and art projects in primary settings across the United Kingdom and internationally.
I am currently Chair Elect of the Association of Science Education and Lead the Primary Science Enhancement Award for PSTT.
My current areas of interest are:
The use of drama as an Assessment for Learning (AfL) tool within primary science.
Using a creative, link-learning approach to teaching science.
The development of ‘art conversations’ within the primary classroom as part of the ‘art journey’.
I provide Science and Art and Design CPD (Continuing Professional Development) for in-service teachers.
