Birmingham

I have been a part of mathematics education for over 30 years as a teacher, mathematics subject leader and Local Authority consultant. As Inspiring Maths Education, I’m continuing my extensive 20+ year track record supporting primary and secondary schools to improve and develop the quality of teaching and learning with a specific focus on mathematics. This includes providing high quality, bespoke subject specific training, support, advice, consultancy and professional development across the country and internationally. As an independent consultant, I wear a number of hats working for a variety of organisations. I am an accredited professional lead for the National Centre for the Excellence in Teaching Mathematics (NCETM). I am a work group lead for NCETM Maths Hubs across the Midlands: North Midlands (NM) and East Midlands West (EMW). These look at Mastery Readiness, Developing Teaching for Mastery, SKTM for TAs and ECTs in the primary phase, as well as Y5-8 continuity. As an associate lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University, I work with student teachers at the very start of their careers in teaching as both an academic mentor and lecturer. I am a School Development Lead for ARK Curriculum Mathematics Mastery programme visiting schools to support them in their mastery journey. I deliver mathematics training for Teachers’ Courses and Resources (TCR) in Staffordshire, offering a range of CPD opportunities both face to face and remotely which allows me to work with teachers both in this country and beyond. I have a real passion for the teaching and learning of mathematics and have had a considerable involvement in teaching mathematics both as a teacher, subject leader and adviser over a long career. My enthusiasm for mathematics is infectious and I have vast experience of working with a variety of stakeholders in schools to guide and inspire the next generation of mathematicians.

I’m writing to share some important news about QA Dental Engineers. As some of you know, I started QA as a sole trader around 25 years ago, back when the industry was very different to the industry we see today. Due to an increasing client base, I expanded the company to include field engineers and office staff as was necessary and the company grew steadily over the years. With the advancement of technology and development of new techniques, we adjusted our practices to ensure we always stayed current and were able to continue to support our clients to the fullest of our ability. I’ve always been proud of the way our engineers have stepped up to the challenges posed by an ever-changing industry, their willingness to undertake further training and continuing professional development. I surrounded myself with an excellent team and we have always endeavoured to provide the best service we can. Unfortunately, with all that being said, times do change and things do come to an end. It is with regret that I have made the decision to close QA Dental Engineers. We will cease actively trading on the 31st of March 2022, although the office will be open until the 15th of April 2022 in order to give us time to wrap things up properly. I appreciate that this is very short notice, however, we had been hoping to reach an agreement with another company in order to enable us to continue trading (albeit under another name.) Unfortunately, this was not feasible and so we are still in the situation where we need to close our doors. We are not booking in any further service work or Pressure System Inspections in order to make sure we have enough capacity to cover breakdowns and repairs in the weeks we have available. We are unable to recommend another dental engineering company at this time. I personally am going to continue to create better practices for dentists by means of automation of vacuum & compressor systems. I’ve been involved in this for some time with my company Qcall Technologies UK, which some of you may be aware of. I will be available in this capacity for any enquiries you may have.
