Fran is happy to take on any of the challenges given to her. She says, “I enjoy the challenge of making a difference. Short-term projects have to be highly-focussed and time-driven. There is no time to get drawn into the politics of the situation.” Pete has supported the development of science departments in readiness for inspections/evaluations. He has supported many teacher trainees and Early Career Teachers in school and college settings.
