Built in the classroom, used every day.

Workbooks, exam projects, a book, and the quiet tools behind the results. Each one began with a real learner and a real need. Most are school documents, so ask, and I will gladly send copies.

Resources and projects

  • ICT, Robotics & Coding workbook series

    CurriculumYears 1–6

    Six years of wonder in print. Built on the Pearson iPrimary schemes of work, the series carries young learners from Scratch to Python, through AI, animation, the Internet of Things and data science. The school prints it and uses it every day.

  • Python by Doing

    BookPython

    My book on Python, written on one belief: you learn to code by coding. Short, clear explanations, then your hands on the keyboard.

  • Djib Blue

    IGCSE projectYear 10

    An IGCSE Paper 2 project set where the desert meets the sea: learners run the digital side of an eco-tourism business on the Gulf of Tadjoura, across every application in the exam.

  • Results-analysis workbook

    AssessmentYears 1–10

    Every learner, every class, graded on Pearson IGCSE boundaries. It shows at a glance who is flying and who needs a hand, so help arrives before it is too late.

  • SunCharge

    IGCSE projectYear 10

    A cross-software project that rehearses the practical exam until the real one feels familiar.

  • ReBoot Djibouti

    Data projectGrade 8

    Data processing with a local heartbeat: student notes and worksheets built around a story learners recognise.

  • Exams & mark schemes

    AssessmentYears 4–10

    End-of-term papers, CATs and mark schemes written in the Pearson style and moderated across the department, so no exam day ever comes as a surprise.

  • Robotics, coding & AI lab plan

    FacilitiesWhole school

    The equipment list and set-up plan for a room where ideas get wheels: VEX IQ for younger builders, VEX V5 for older ones.

  • Green Screen Magic

    WorksheetYear 2

    Year 2 learners discovering that, with a green cloth and a camera, they can stand anywhere in the world.

  • Academic Competition

    EventWhole school

    Planned and ran the 2024–25 competition, then served as IT Specialist for 2025–26. Both earned a Certificate of Appreciation from the High School Principal.
