St Peter’s London Docks Primary School

“Paul has been fantastic in his breadth of knowledge and the advice he offers, including for parents. An extremely high calibre practitioner.”

SENCO from Tower Hamlets

“Paul’s classroom teaching has been consistently outstanding and this was clarified by the most recently Ofsted inspection in January 2013 where he was formally observed by an inspector. Paul’s planning and pupil pen profiles were deemed as some of the best the inspector had ever seen, as was his partnership working with the Learning Support Assistant.”
