      Linksys marketing agent

      Working right out of school, I was employed and corporately trained by Cisco to work at weekends within the local community to instruct and support people who were purchasing Linksys home networking equipment. Through the bespoke support and guidance I was able to give, my colleague and I managed to raise sales of Linksys products by 40% over the 11 week period.

      Aug 2007 - Sept 2010
      Instructor

      My first role within education was up-skilling adults in my local area of Swanscombe in IT User qualifications. The Spark IT centre, where I was based, managed to become the highest accrediting centre in the country for the IC3 qualification, an entry level qualification offered to provide a robust foundation for adults to work with ICT in their professional roles.

      Aug 2011 - Aug 2014
      Teacher of computer science

      Within this role, I have progressed from an instructor of Computing, brought in from industry to train young people with the skills and experience I had gained, to a fully qualified teacher of ICT and Computing. Since qualifying through the GTP route of teacher training, I have gone on to lead the subject area of computer science where I was initially responsible for selecting the specification, and then developing the curriculum to meet the needs of students. Within this role, I have also lead a number of extra curricular projects with industry partners and other schools to raise the profile of computer science for all those involved. In addition, I sat on a committee that has steered overall direction of computer science across the the Leigh Academies Trust of schools that includes Primary, Secondary and Specialist phase schools.
