Review: The School Fundraising Handbook

March 2, 2020

One of the chief banes of my life as a head of computing in a comprehensive school was acquiring enough money to develop the subject and to improve the experience of using education technology for everyone across the school. My experience is not unique, of course. The same lament is heard from teachers and subject leaders across the land, and the ever-present budget constraints have only made the situation more challenging.

That’s where this book comes in. I only wish it had been available when I needed it most.

To read the remainder of this review, please head over to Schools Week.

Jean-Louis Dutaut, the editor at Schools Week, very kindly wrote a testimonial about my work. You can read it here: Testimonials.

Is The computing Curriculum Too Masculine? Revisited 16 years later!

One of the apparently insoluble problems of the age is how do you encourage more girls to take up Computing? I think a lot can be done, and have done so myself, but I wonder how far a lot of the effort fails to get to the heart of the issue, which could be the curriculum itself, the way it is taught, or a combination of the two?
