Welcome to Teach-Lead!
With a strong background in professional development and school improvement, I support schools through bespoke CPD, tailored to each setting’s needs, context, and budget.
My CPD sessions are known for being practical, evidence‑informed, and designed to meet the specific needs of each audience; whether for action‑planning, whole‑school training, or ongoing leadership support.
Update: Twilight CPD sessions are in demand and are available on request.
Online coaching and planning sessions are also available in the evening.
“A really enlightening session that was delivered with the school’s context very much at the heart. It has breathed some new life into my teaching – I have been seeking out how to make tweaks to my practice already. Thank you very much, Martin – I thoroughly enjoyed the session.”
“Well planned, informative and tailored to our needs; very well delivered.”
“The delivery style was excellent and all participants felt involved and their contributions valued.”
CPD Guest Speaker: ResearchED, MRLP (EA), Litdrive National Conference & Litdrive Belfast.
