Martin Phillips
Martin has extensive experience in this field as a senior leader in schools, a local authority English adviser, an Ofsted inspector and Chief Examiner for GCSE English. This has reinforced his belief that it is possible to devise active, exploratory approaches to GCSE courses. Working closely with excellent teachers he has devised techniques that drive up standards and crucially develop pupils’ literacy skills as displayed in his library of case study video clips.
