Testimonials:
"Sal had an immediate impact from the moment she walked through the door! Energetic, inspirational and a grower of people!
Her activities really captured the attention of our pupils and she worked closely with our staff to engage and develop our creative curriculum. Her work with our after school drama club was amazing and many of our children really learnt to find their inner performer and this had a direct impact in their speaking and listening behaviour across the school.
We loved having Sal in our school and can't wait to get her back in so we can create more scenarios and really boost our experiential learning opportunities! A star performer and an inspiration to learners."
- Samantha Edbe, Head of English, St Mary’s CE Primary School, Congleton
"I love that these regular workshops give children allocated time and permission to engage in an imaginative world.
By working closely with some children in the nurture groups, I have noticed a distinct difference in behaviour within the classroom and around school. Sal has encouraged and nurtured particular children that needed that extra boost. Their social interactions with other children and confidence has improved dramatically as a result."
- Chris Quinn, Deputy Head, St Mary’s CC Primary School, Droylsden
”Sal brought with her an absolute armoury of skills both with children and with adults. Whilst retaining and enhancing all the positive aspects and character of the children's previous rhythmic compositions she provided them with a super structure around which to anchor and a clear and secure vision towards which we could all work.
She ‘captained the ship,’ so to speak, giving the children such positive direction and a tremendous "vibe" which also served to reassure overloaded staff members. She was excellent and the production a great success."
- Jools Parker-Wade, Head of Music, Barkerend Primary Academy, Bradford
