About

Roman Workshop was established in September 2015, after years of wanting to share my passion of all things Roman. After becoming a qualified Primary School Teacher, I realised that I had the crucial skills needed in order to turn my dream into a reality. I could not just turn up in a school, dressed as a Roman Soldier and talk about the Romans, but I could do so in an innovative, engaging way, that enriches the curriculum for the children and makes their learning memorable, fun and most importantly, embeds the learning of the children.

The service that I provide, that makes me stand out from the people doing 'dress-up' is:
  • A scheme of work planned, resourced and delivered by a practising teacher.
  • A professional, reliable service, guaranteed to fulfil your requirements.
  • Authentic equipment and props (unlike other workshop providers) that are too expensive for school budgets to warrant purchasing.
  • The knowledge of the Roman Empire that most teachers do not have the time or desire to read up on.
​
On that last point, although I do not hold a degree in Roman History, I have read extensively for countless hours, from a plethora of academic sources. I truly have a passion for Roman history, this has allowed me to become very knowledgeable on the subject and my passion certainly comes across when I speak about it to others. This passion, together with a confidence and a love for presenting, means that I can deliver an exciting workshop, that can both ignite and fan the flames of a child's desire to learn about History.
