Many of your school's current and prospective parents are committed to ensuring their children receive an education that mirrors the values of innovation and forward-thinking that are shaping the future.

A future that is rapidly changing.

Over the past 8 years serving as Head of Engineering at St Faith's School in Cambridge, I pioneered a groundbreaking curriculum blending problem-solving and creativity, described as a 'STEM dream' by TES judges.

Parents have shared how my approach inspired their children to go on to achieve Arkwright Scholarships and secure places at top universities for STEM subjects.

More importantly, I’ve witnessed first-hand how these methods transform students’ confidence and their ability to tackle challenges far beyond the classroom.

I have now stepped away from my role at St Faith's to launch my own STEM Learning and Innovation Hub to bring this impact to students at schools nationwide.

Drawing on experience from working in F1, a decade at the forefront of the film industry, and teaching across all STEM subjects (prep school through to GCSE outreach), I craft tailored resources and enrichment programs that:

Inspire students to think critically, solve creatively, and develop a lifelong love for STEM.
Reduce teacher workloads with ready-to-use, high-quality resources that integrate seamlessly into your curriculum.
Position schools as leaders in innovative, future-focused STEM education.

Like you, I understand what it takes to ignite curiosity and fuel the minds of tomorrow’s innovators. On our best days we feel like Tony Stark...

But let’s be real: tight budgets, limited time, and rising parental expectations can make it the day-to-day feel like this...

Your students are already learning from some of the best minds.

But, what if you could deliver cutting-edge STEM content, without the added workload?

Here’s how I can help:

Tailored Enrichment

Topical and engaging content exclusive to your school that connect with current affairs, innovations and real-world challenges.
Cross-curricular activities that promote EDI.
Aligned with your whole school priorities, saving teachers time on creating or adapting resources.
Ready-to-use lesson plans.
Flexible options: one-off lessons, extended homework, or full-day enrichment programs.
Choose between booking me to deliver content, or budget-friendly tailored resources that teachers can deliver in-house with minimal prep.
Suitable for Years 6–8 with extension opportunities up to GCSE level.

On-demand resources tailored to the curiosity and interests of all pupils, suitable for the given year group.
Creates materials directly linked to individual student questions for deeper engagement.
Seamlessly integrates into lessons with zero preparation required for teachers.
Ideal for cover lessons, flexible learning sessions or independent learning homework tasks.

INSET training & CPD sessions

In small-group CPD sessions, in-house for convenience or locally off-site to encourage fresh, creative thinking.

Ready to Explore?

Ready to get ahead of the game? Let's talk about how we can make it happen.

These tailored enrichment programs are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Once a school books an enrichment resource, it won't be available to others.

Don't miss out on the opportunity to give your students access to unique, high-value content.

Simply use the contact form below and say ‘sounds interesting’ to start a conversation. I’ll also add you to my email list to ensure you don’t miss out on my latest resource announcements!

Looking forward to hearing from you.
