Welcome

Welcome to the Vange Primary School IT Professional Development website. My name is Richard Poth and I have worked as an Education Technology Specialist internationally for six years, working in three different countries. I am trained as a primary school teacher and worked for six years in Southend before moving abroad.

I have known Liz Keeble for many many years and we have always shared many similar views on education. So when she gave me the opportunity to work with you, her staff, I was eager to find the best way to support you. Liz has asked me to support your professional development with IT in the classroom, particularly using Google Apps for Education. This is an area of great comfort and experience for me and as an Google Certified Trainer and Innovator, I'm excited to share my knowledge with you all. I hope this website will help you through the process of moving you and your school forward with your professional development goals.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions - poth.r@vange.essex.sch.uk.
