Memorable to Create Impact

All of my shows use a mixture of song, humour, quizzes and teaching to really hammer the ideas home and create a huge impact. This gets pupils (and staff) talking about English skills.

By watching the show, staff will have their own subject knowledge refreshed.

Because the shows work well with large numbers (full year groups, key stages or even schools) the cost per pupil can be tiny. This means great value for money.

*Hotels tend to be Travelodge or Premier Inn rather than Hilton - I'll do my best to keep the cost down.

Please note: two shows is the maximum daily number for personal health and safety.
