Testimonials
Through his well-researched lesson planning and knowledge of the national curriculum computing requirements, Tim is able to enthuse and inspire young minds across the full primary age range. Whether stand-alone or linked to other curriculum areas, his lessons engage, stretch and challenge all learners.
Tim’s personable manner, when delivering CPD, enables even the least tech-savvy teachers to teach primary computing with greater confidence.
Tim is able to develop projects and activities based on a school’s suggested ideas and creates magnificent outcomes which build children’s aspirations for a future in STEAM professions, for example Greenpower, photography and cross-curricular green-screen media projects, all of which result in children wanting to do more and learn more.
What more can a school ask for from a computing wow!

Head of Primary
Seven Kings School, London Borough of Redbridge
Tim has transformed the teaching of the primary computing curriculum at our school. Children have been engaged, enthused and thoroughly motivated by his approach, making incredible progress. Tim is always willing to go the extra mile to make lessons and projects exciting and relevant to the children. This has included not only day to day lessons, but also our Greenpower project which saw the team compete locally and further afield in racing events. Tim has motivated learners not only in computing lessons, but in extra-curricular clubs and his involvement in cross curricular projects.
Tim’s approach to staff training is always to enable even the most nervous members of staff. He has developed for our school, a staff who are willing to have a go and most recently, his training and support to get us up and running for remote learning was second to none.
Tim is flexible, innovative and has always been a great asset to our school. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
