Profile Information:

School / Work Affiliation: Recently retired Head of ICT - Consultant for ICT
Website: http://www.maximise-ict.co.uk
About Me: Originally I qualified as a teacher of Technology and have been totally commited to staff development ever since.
Trading as 'Maximise' I have been providing staff support in ICT for some 25 years. Initially employed as a Peripatetic Head of IT for some 6 years in Croydon and then as a Director of Technology in the North East. Both working for LEAs and now freelance I provide IT Solutions for Education, INSET, CPD, Curriculum Development, advice on installations, cabling, classroom layouts etc. I encourage end-users in all aspects of IT applications including MS Office, Concept Mapping, Graphics, IWBs, Admin etc.
Although I consider myself to be a specialist for ICT at KS3/4/5, I have always worked closely with all staff in whole-school development. My particular concern is that ALL subject areas, admin staff, technicians and LSAs included, should be using ICT to maximise both teaching and learning.

It seems like you have quite the experience in regards to technology. As an aspiring speech therapy student, I was wondering if you have worked with SLT's in the school environment with various technologies for their students.
