About

Me VectoredI am the Principal Teacher/Head of English at Perth Academy in Perth, SCOTLAND! (ie: Not Western Australia!)

I am responsible for the provision of English (literature) teaching to over 1,000 pupils aged 12-18. I take this responsibility very seriously and am a great believer that the ability to be able to read and write well is now more important than at any other time in human history.

I am also a great proponent of Web2.0 tools. My definition for these are online tools and resources that give the opportunity for conversation/commenting.

I actively participate in a number of online communities and, as a result, have become the lifelong learner that I hope the pupils in my charge will become.
