My new working tapestry...

When the last new secondary curriculum was introduced, the main image/concept was of a series of strands that began to meet and merge together over time. These formed the "big picture" of the curriculum...
Each subject had its part to play....
Without any, the big picture couldn't be seen as clearly...

Earlier this year, the big picture of my career was blocked by dark clouds...

My life from September 1st has now started to take shape as various threads begin to merge together. Each of these threads is a different small project that will involve me in producing something, and in return will provide some income for me. There have been a few broken threads, and a few that didn't quite lead where they were supposed to. Some of them are of better quality than others, and I think there are some new threads that will still appear. One task will be to weave the threads together to make something that is permanent and produces a new, and exciting 'big picture'. Very many thanks to those who have already played their part - I shall be telling you more about those projects in the next few months...

There's still a long way to go, but I'm starting to feel cautiously optimistic that in the short term I'll be able to do a range of consultancy, professional development and writing jobs, while I keep an eye out for the right teaching / management / consultancy job.

So, if you fancy adding another 'thread' to the tapestry, please get in touch...
