More CPD Courses
On Monday 21st, I am due to start a course with Aspire Education Academy, which covers the following qualifications:-
- Level 2 Understanding Behaviour that Challenges
- Level 2 Understanding Safeguarding and Prevent
- Level 2 Understanding Mental Health First Aid and Mental Health Advocacy in the Workplace
This is designed to help people back in to work / employment.
However i am currently employed as a supply teaching assistant (just not working enough hours). I am therefore more than happy to undertake temporary supply work, which is actually a really good way to gain experience in different schools, share ideas, share expertise and build a wide range of skills.
So just a few of the recently completed courses.

Building a ping pong ball shooter – part 2
Building a ping pong ball shooter
Further to the previous post, the ball shooter is now built up. I do need to solder this together, at some point. For now, it works as it is. This is the test I did at the library (more space).

Building a ping pong ball shooter
As part of an order from Better Equipped, I sent for a ping pong ball shooter. This consists of two rotating disks, which propel a ping pong ball forward.
So far, I have only partly built this. I need to do some soldering to complete. I also want to find a safe place to test it. This project will be demonstrated at the Paignton Library STEM group, but could be used in a school too. This would support, Science, Maths, Design & Technology and possibly other subjects.
