Tim Rylands is no stranger to our region. For many years he has spoken at events and run inset in schools all over the world. Although often seen as an ICT guru, the focus of his work is aimed squarely at motivating writers, especially boys in a huge range of interesting (and often free!) ways. Feedback from teachers has always been outstanding - so we have brought him back to run two very distinct days. Any school that would like to raise the quality of writing in their school, especially for reluctant writers, would benefit hugely from attending. 

4th February - Tim will lead a hands-on creative day for teachers, inspiring them with a huge range of digital tools they can use immediately back in the classroom. The focus will be on using mobile devices, but not exclusively. The day will be supported by pupils form Normanby Primary Academy where they have used 1:1 mobile devices for over seven years - the focus is on effective learning, NOT the gadget! The tone of the day will be primary based.

5th February - A day to be inspired! In the course of one day delegates will take in more ideas than they know what to do with! With the focus always on developing effective writing across a range of genres and subject areas, this is a course for any teacher who would like to be shown practical, inspiring ideas with a huge range of (often free) digital tools. At previous events his ideas have proved to inspire and engage classes from Y1 to Y11 from the feedback we have had. This is not a day to be missed if you have any children in your school who are not engaged or enthused when it comes to putting pen to paper. This course is suitable for secondary and primary.
