Biography
I have taught Biology, Psychology and ICT in a range of secondary schools, most recently at Clifton College, Bristol, where I was Head of Science. I am the author and co-author of a number of important textbooks for secondary Biology teaching, often in collaboration with the Nuffield Curriculum Trust. I joined the Graduate School in September 2008 as the senior biologist on the Science PGCE course. I am currently co-ordinating the PGCE Science course with sixty students.
