With over 25 years’ experience as a therapist and 35 working within the helping professions, I know counselling and psychotherapy works. During this time I have offered counselling and psychotherapy for individuals and couples, using a combination of the person-centred approach with Transactional Analysis and psychodynamic theoretical models. I believe the client themselves holds the answers to their questions. What I provided was warmth, compassion, respect and a safe space in which they can tell their story: a willingness to share the therapeutic journey and to help them to reach the goals they set. The approaches I used can help the client understand the history of their difficulties, and offer a way forward in terms of restructuring or realigning their perceptions of life, helping them rediscover their drive towards wholeness and health. Although I no longer offer counselling or psychotherapy to clients I bring all my knowledge, skills and experience into my work as a workshop presenter, supervisor and trainer. My focus now is on offering online supervision, undertaking research, continuing to write on topics and run workshops on topics that interest me. I offer training to trainers, both face to face and online. As a supervisor I offer supervision to qualified counsellors and psychotherapists, something I have done since 2002. Supervision can be undertaken individually or in small groups. In addition I am endorsed to teach and supervise Transactional Analysis by the European Association for Transactional Analysis, this means I can teach and supervise supervisors and trainers. As a supervisor of trainers I come with experience of setting up and running a training and therapy centre, of gaining MSc recogition for my courses and running a low cost therapy centre. I know how challenging it can be to meet the many and varied national and international requirements; maintaining personal idiosyncratic preferences; whilst adhering to academic norms; set core competencies; and external organisational requirements that, at times, appear to conflict with one another. As a researcher my most recent project concerned the impact of the death of a child, of any age, on parents and siblings. This has resulted in May 2021 to my second book Understanding Bereaved Parents and Siblings: A Handbook for Professionals, Family and Friends. I run workshops for professionals who want a greater understanding of how they can work with bereaved mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters. Workshops are planned for bereaved parents and siblings later in 2022. In addition I have a specific interest in training courses and training standards. Having completed my DPsych in 2010 and written my first book What You Really Need to Know About Counselling and Psychotherapy Training: An Essential Guide published by Routledge in 2014, I have gone on to continue my research into counselling and psychotherapy training from both the trainees and trainers perspectives. I am passionate about training and training standards and want to work with others who wish to work to the best of their ability with integrity, passion and trustworthiness. If you have any questions, or would like to make an appointment, please email me via this link or call me on 07428 551163 between 10am and 5pm. I do not interrupt sessions to answer the phone, but there is a confidential answering machine; please leave your name, number and any message, and I will call you back.

Strone Primary School Information

strone primary school information

The Education Committee recommended at its meeting of 21 August 1997 that – ‘the adoption of a distinctive dress code chosen to enhance the ethos of the school should be encouraged in all schools’. Given that there is substantial parental and public approval of uniform, schools in Argyll and Bute are free to encourage the wearing of school uniform. In Strone Primary School, the suggested uniform is as follows: BOYS: Strone School sweatshirt (which is bright red and bears the school logo, plain red jumper or cardigan.) Black or grey trousers. White shirt or school polo shirt Black School Shoes GIRLS: Strone School sweatshirt (which is bright red and bears the school logo, plain red jumper or cardigan.) Black or grey skirts or trousers. White blouse or school polo shirt Black School Shoes PE KIT: T-shirt, shorts, training shoes. Indoor and outdoor training shoes required. T-shirt and training shoes should be kept in a bag with pupil’s name on it. At Strone Primary we use the outdoor environment as a valuable resource for our curriculum. The children are frequently outdoors and therefore we would ask that they all have a pair of wellies that they can keep in school. We are able to provide waterproof jackets and trousers for all our pupils. Please note that school uniform is not compulsory and it is not policy to insist on pupils wearing uniform or having specialist items of clothing in order to engage in all of the activities of the curriculum. As such, pupils will not be deprived of any educational benefit as a result of not wearing uniform. However, there are forms of dress which are unacceptable in school, such as items of clothing which: potentially encourage faction (such as football colours); could cause offence (such as anti-religious symbolism or political slogans); could cause health and safety difficulties (such as loose fitting clothing, dangling earrings); are made from a flammable material, for example shell suits in practical classes; could cause damage to flooring; carry advertising, particularly for alcohol or tobacco; and could be used to inflict damage on other pupils or be used by others to do so. All clothing brought to school should be labelled or marked in some way, as it is difficult for children to distinguish their own clothing from others. School Clothing Grants Grants of £100 are available for any child who will attend an Argyll and Bute Council school and whose parent(s) receive: Income Support Income Based Job Seekers Allowance Income related element of employment and Support allowance Council Tax or Housing Benefit Child Tax Credit and Working Tax Credit (Income should not exceed £6900) Pupils aged between 16 and 18 years who receive any of the above benefits in their own right also qualify. To complete an online application form please visit https://www.argyll-bute.gov.uk/education-and-learning/childcare-school-and-education-grants-0. Alternatively, please contact Customer Services: Education on 01369 708548 or your local benefit enquiry office. Please note that the above eligibility criteria is correct at time of publishing (November 2019) and may be subject to change by the start of August 2020. The link above will contain the most up-to-date information. If you are not eligible for any of the benefits listed above there is a separate application process available and you should contact either 01369 708548 or your local benefit enquiry office for details.

I have dedicated my entire life to helping other people to become high performers. Others say I’m a high performer too! I define a high performer as someone who wants to achieve more than others. Someone who is committed to being a little better tomorrow than they are today. And someone who wants to leave a legacy that makes the world better than they found it. Sometimes that means being tenacious, sometimes being brave and embracing new ways. Often letting go of the old ways that no longer work. Letting go of stress, our self-negativity and inherited dramas. During my 20+ years as a business improvement consultant I’ve created a fusion method that reduces stress and simultaneously improves profit. Let’s face it, as a business owner a lot of stress is from knowing there’s more opportunity, but you can’t quite grasp it. Taking the dual approach of identifying accelerated growth, profit and stress reduction gives maximum results. Although qualified in business psychology, accelerated business growth and business coaching with a focus on creating high-performing businesses, in my heart I know that every business is only as successful as its people. And, that high performing people think differently, act differently and feel different to people who have missed out on internal self-development practice such as meditation. I was fortunate that my father taught me meditation as a child. It was only in my twenties I realised the power of my teachings and daily practice as I struggled juggling studying business psychology, working full time and trying to enjoy life. I realised that meditation helped me sleep, kept me calm and healthy so I started formal training to become both a yoga and meditation teacher which I incorporated into my business optimisation consultancy. My studies have extended over thousands of hours of apprenticing, studying different ways of meditating and studying The Vedas. I followed my fascination of the layers of human consciousness and how business owners can become high performers. I am now over 29 years and 21,170 meditations deep into my practice and my optimisation methods have added over £100 million of revenue to companies. I have studied with Buddhist Monks and Tibetan Masters, British School of Meditation, British School of Yoga. Most recently studying Meditation Mastery Teacher, Advanced Yoga Practitioners Diploma, with the highly acclaimed team at Dru Global School of Meditation, Yoga & Ayurveda. I am qualified at Master level in Ancient Yoga Massage from an accredited teacher of the Healing Hands Centre, Kathmandu. I live with my husband and dog in Cheshire where you can find me walking in nature, enjoying my own cooking a bit too much and riding my motorcycle on sunny days! Turning My Mess to Mastery Against all these odds of mental exhaustion, emotional turmoil and physical pain in 1995 I embarked on my solo, unsupported motorcycle ride around the coast of Great Britain with no satnav, no mobile and no wrong turns. I am the first woman to do it. Just weeks before the start I couldn’t stand straight. I couldn’t walk. It was then I acknowledged something I had known from a very young age that there is a vital link between our mind, nature-connectedness and achieving the success we desire. With this acknowledgement I was able to reduce and eradicate the pain. I was pain free and set off as planned, met all 277 pre-planned media interviews on time every time and raised a substantial amount of money for a lung cancer charity. That was just the beginning of the journey…

A DETAILED GUIDE TO AFFILIATE MARKETING TRACKER: WHY I CHOOSE UPPROMOTE AFFILIATE MARKETING SOFTWARE Affiliate marketing is a powerful strategy for driving sales, expanding brand reach, and boosting revenue. However, managing affiliate campaigns effectively can be a daunting task without the right tools. As someone who's worked with affiliate programs for quite some time, I can confidently say that using an affiliate marketing tracker is one of the best ways to streamline the process and ensure that affiliates are properly compensated for their efforts. In this article, I will discuss the importance of affiliate marketing trackers, what they do, and why Affiliate software with fraud prevention [https://uppromote.com/] has been my go-to tool for managing and tracking affiliate marketing campaigns. WHAT IS AN AFFILIATE MARKETING TRACKER? An affiliate marketing tracker is a software tool designed to monitor and track the performance of affiliate links, campaigns, and affiliates themselves. The primary function of an affiliate marketing tracker is to provide detailed analytics about clicks, conversions, sales, and other relevant metrics associated with each affiliate’s performance. These metrics help affiliate managers understand which affiliates are driving results and which campaigns are performing best. By using an affiliate marketing tracker, businesses can: * Monitor clicks: Track how many people click on an affiliate’s unique tracking link. * Track conversions: See how many of those clicks turn into sales or leads. * Calculate commissions: Ensure that affiliates are rewarded based on actual performance. * Optimize campaigns: Adjust marketing strategies based on real-time data. Affiliate marketing trackers also allow businesses to track conversions across multiple platforms, ensuring they never miss out on any data related to affiliate sales, which ultimately helps in making informed decisions. WHY AFFILIATE MARKETING TRACKERS ARE ESSENTIAL FOR SUCCESS Affiliate marketing can be incredibly profitable, but it’s crucial to have accurate and real-time tracking to ensure that all affiliates are properly compensated, campaigns are optimized, and results are maximized. Here's why having an affiliate marketing tracker is essential: 1. REAL-TIME PERFORMANCE INSIGHTS One of the biggest advantages of using an affiliate marketing tracker like UpPromote is the ability to monitor affiliate performance in real-time. Instead of waiting for end-of-month reports or manually checking each affiliate’s stats, I can instantly see how well my affiliates are performing. With UpPromote, the dashboard gives me immediate access to key metrics like click-through rates, conversion rates, and the number of sales generated by each affiliate. This makes it easier for me to identify top performers and recognize areas where improvements are needed. For example, if I notice that an affiliate is driving a lot of traffic but not many conversions, I can quickly reach out to them for feedback or offer additional promotional materials to help boost their performance. 2. ACCURATE COMMISSION TRACKING AND PAYMENTS Managing affiliate payments is often one of the most time-consuming and complex aspects of affiliate marketing. Without a reliable tracker, commission calculations can become tedious and prone to error. With UpPromote, I no longer have to worry about manually calculating commissions. The software tracks every sale made by an affiliate and automatically calculates commissions based on pre-set rates. This means I can pay my affiliates on time, every time, with zero mistakes. The automated tracking and commission calculation make it much easier to scale the program, especially as I add more affiliates. Moreover, the software offers various payment methods like PayPal or bank transfer, allowing me to send payouts without dealing with any manual paperwork. 3. ENHANCED AFFILIATE RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT A good affiliate marketing tracker doesn’t just track sales; it also provides insights into affiliate behavior and performance. UpPromote helps me manage my relationships with affiliates more effectively by giving me access to important data like: * Affiliate activity levels: I can see which affiliates are actively promoting my products and which are not. * Affiliate performance history: I can track an affiliate’s sales performance over time, which helps me identify long-term top performers or those who may need additional support. * Customizable goals: I can set specific goals for individual affiliates or entire teams and track progress against those goals. With this data, I can maintain strong relationships with my affiliates. If an affiliate is struggling, I can offer them additional support or incentives. If someone is excelling, I can reward them with higher commissions or exclusive offers. 4. FRAUD PREVENTION AND ACCURATE REPORTING Affiliate fraud is a real concern, and one of the key reasons why affiliate marketing trackers are so important is that they help detect suspicious activity. UpPromote includes fraud detection tools that automatically flag potential issues, such as duplicate clicks or unusual patterns in affiliate activity. This helps me ensure that only legitimate sales are counted and that affiliates aren’t taking advantage of the system. Additionally, the platform provides detailed, customizable reports that give me a clear overview of my affiliate program's performance. Whether I’m reviewing a specific campaign, comparing affiliate performance, or analyzing overall revenue, UpPromote's reporting tools give me accurate insights that are essential for making data-driven decisions. 5. INCREASED TRANSPARENCY AND TRUST One of the most important aspects of a successful affiliate program is building trust between affiliates and the business. With UpPromote, the transparency of tracking and reporting builds confidence among my affiliates. They know exactly how their sales are being tracked and what commissions they are earning in real-time. This transparency ensures that affiliates are motivated to continue driving traffic and conversions. Also, the fact that I can show affiliates their performance stats and commission reports fosters a sense of fairness and accountability in the program. WHY I CHOOSE UPPROMOTE AFFILIATE MARKETING SOFTWARE While there are many affiliate marketing trackers available, UpPromote stands out because of its user-friendly interface, powerful features, and seamless integration with my existing e-commerce platform. Here’s why I consider UpPromote to be the best option for affiliate tracking: 1. COMPREHENSIVE TRACKING AND AUTOMATION One of the standout features of UpPromote is its ability to track affiliate links and automate processes. The software not only tracks clicks and conversions but also automatically handles commission calculations, payment processing, and reporting. This automation saves me countless hours of manual work and reduces the chances of errors, especially when dealing with large volumes of sales. 2. SEAMLESS INTEGRATION WITH SHOPIFY As someone who runs a Shopify store, seamless integration was essential for me. UpPromote integrates effortlessly with Shopify, syncing all my affiliate data without requiring any technical expertise. This integration ensures that all sales and affiliate activities are accurately tracked across my e-commerce store, giving me real-time access to data without any manual entry. 3. CUSTOMIZABLE REPORTING AND INSIGHTS With UpPromote, I can create custom reports tailored to my business needs. Whether I need to track affiliate performance by campaign, geographic location, or sales volume, the platform provides the flexibility to customize reporting as I see fit. This feature is crucial for understanding how different affiliates or campaigns are performing and for optimizing my affiliate program over time. 4. AFFILIATE SUPPORT AND COMMUNICATION Managing affiliate relationships is made easy with UpPromote's communication tools. I can easily send updates, performance reports, and promotional materials to my affiliates, keeping them engaged and informed. Additionally, if an affiliate needs assistance, I can quickly reach out to them through the platform, streamlining communication. 5. SCALABILITY As my affiliate program grows, UpPromote scales effortlessly with it. I don’t have to worry about outgrowing the platform because it’s designed to handle programs of all sizes. Whether I’m working with a handful of affiliates or hundreds, UpPromote manages everything with ease, making it perfect for both small and large-scale affiliate operations. CONCLUSION An affiliate marketing tracker is an essential tool for managing and optimizing affiliate programs. Whether you're a small business owner or running a large affiliate network, using an efficient tracker like UpPromote Affiliate Marketing Software can drastically improve the management of your affiliate campaigns. With real-time tracking, automated commission calculations, fraud prevention tools, and customizable reporting, UpPromote has made affiliate marketing a breeze for me. If you're serious about running a successful affiliate marketing program and want to streamline your processes, I highly recommend giving UpPromote a try. It has transformed the way I track and manage my affiliate marketing efforts, and I’m confident it will do the same for you. *

We specialize in consultancy and training in OO analysis and design, UML modelling, BPMN, Metadata Management, Model Driven Architecture (MDA), requirements engineering and software engineering process design and implementation. New book - Interactive Computational Geometry in Python! Interactive Computational Geometry in Python, is now released. Click on the link in the sidebar for information and preview chapters. This book is an updated and expanded version of our popular “Interactive Computational Geometry - a taxonomic approach” ported from Mathematica to Python. It has some very useful extra material and greatly improved demonstrations and text. If you are not an experienced Mathematica programmer, you will find the Python code is much easier to undestand. In fact, when we made the port, we were delighted by just how simple and elegant the Python code turned out to be. We will no longer update the Mathematica version (although it will always remain available) and we consider “Interactive Computational Geometry in Python” to now be the definitive version of the text. Python is a great language for this sort of thing, and we hope and expect that moving to Python will make the book accessible to a much wider audience. We are very excited about this book! We have developed a complete process, including software, for creating long-form texts as interactive Jupyter notebooks and this book is the first result of our efforts. If you need help writing your own book in Jupyter, or just need help working with notebooks, please contact us for training and consultancy. Books Jim and Ila are authors of several best selling books on UML, BPMN and Model Driven Architecture. Our latest modeling book is “Secrets of Analysis”. This describes an approach to object oriented analysis called Generative Analysis. It tells you how to take unstructured, informal information, and, through a well-defined process of transformation, produce precise, structured information and ultimately UML models. If you ever wanted to learn the secrets of how experts perform great analysis and produce great UML analysis models, then this book is for you! We expect it will help re-establish OOA as a key discipline for the UML modeller/Business Analyst. Fed up with semantically weak user stories? Want to put some rigour back into your analysis process? This is the answer. Also be sure to check out our “Introduction to BPMN 2”. We believe that this is the first interactive modeling textbook ever produced. It is an enhanced ebook with animations and interactive figures for the iPad and Mac. Animations show you precisely how the various BPMN modeling element work. The interactive edition is available in Apple iBook Store. It is also available in a non interactive PDF version for all other readers from Amazon. Bespoke technical authoring We can help you author interactive texts in: - Apple iBooks - Jupyter - Wolfram Language Future books More or less as a hobby, Jim has been writing an interactive textbook on mathematics, music and musical set theory. There is a Wolfram Language version (which is rally just a scatch pad) and a version in Jupyter that will be published when Jim gets around to finishing it. If you are interested in these topics, contact us for details. Training courses Universities - we offer all of our training materials free to universities. All we ask in rerturn is that if there is a book associated with the materials, it is recommended as a course book. Commercial organizations - all of our training courses are available for delivery or licensing. Contact us for details. We offer: - UML 2 and the Unified Process (of course!) - Introduction to BPMN 2 - Miscellaneous OOAD/MDA/Metadata Management courses - Bespoke courses: if it is anything to do with modelling or UML we can do it! - Any of the advanced topics from “Secrets of Analysis" We have had very many satisfied clients including, JP Morgan, British Airways, Vodafone, AVIVA etc. etc.

Over the last twenty years I have worked tirelessly to develop a methodology and an infrastructure for partner agencies, cultural organisations, artists, practitioners and schools, to provide children and young people with access to a high quality offer of Arts and Cultural experiences. I have developed arts and cultural strategy for local authorities, been responsible for the development and successful delivery of large arts and cultural events and I have advised national agencies on the development of strategic resourcing and programming, to encourage the widest possible engagement and impact from investment. I am passionate about the role that the arts and culture should play in the life of the child and I am determined to help the UK preserve its identity as one of the worlds creative powerhouses. Fostering links for young people with creative industries and ensuring that classroom based activity has a tangible and meaningful link with the world beyond the school gates is of paramount importance. My work across all sectors of education has been to try and bring together a framework of experiences and opportunities, designed to help children and young people translate early educational achievement into meaningful attainment and develop the critical and creative skills vital for their future. Sam Atkins Hi, I'm Sam and have been working within the media and education industry for twenty years. Following a successful career in TV production I was appointed the role of a broadcast journalist with the BBC. Whilst with the BBC (Nations and Regions) I was part of the development team that established the highly successful BBC News School Report and BBC Parachutes programmes working with young people to produce professional level news packages for BBC output. In 2008 I established C1 Media Ltd, a media in education business, and to date have engaged with over 6500 young people from primary, secondary special, college and higher education sectors. Within my first year of operation with the Arts Service at CfBT Education Trust, we also launched The Young Journalist Academy in 2008. This highly successful education programme provides professional level training for children and young people. Partnerships developed over the years for both the YJA programme and other projects include: The Royal Albert Hall, BBC, English National Ballet, RAF, The Guardian, Cirque du Soleil, National Theatre and Royal Opera House. Sara Bullimore I have been working in the arts and cultural sector for over 20 years and during this time I have developed not only my own professional skills but more importantly, created high quality opportunities for commuities to participate, learn and enjoy the role arts and culture play in our lives. Initiating, delivering and managing a vast range of artistic projects both as an independent freelance arts consultant and in previous roles as the Arts Development Officer at City of Lincoln Council and at National Dance Agencies in Nottingham and London, have helped me to understand the value and critical importance of collaboration and partnership working. In particular my personal passions are literature and dance - I fully believe in the transformative power meaningful participation in quality arts and culture can have on a person's life - regardless of age or ability! I have extensive experience working with mupltiple partners and funders on projects. Working for the City of Lincoln Council I created and managed the Cultural Sector Partnership - working with partners in the private and public sector, heritage, arts and sports to develop strategies, conferences and cross cutting artistic programmes and festivals. I have undertaken and continue to work independently with Lincolnshire County Council, Writing East Midlands, Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage, Shakespeare Schools Festival, Kazzum Theatre Arts, University of Lincoln, Lincoln Business Improvement Group and Arts Council of England to name a few. Living in Linclonshire I am passionate about helping to esnure that connectivity exists between national and regional activities - helping to promote the best connectivity between opportunities and links between organisations.
