Testimonials from Teachers

'I would like to put on record how impressed the children and staff of Jubilee Academy were with David Chadwick’s brilliant and thought provoking sessions on Internet Safety and Radicalisation. David delivered his programme to all of our Key Stage 2 classes. It is fair to say rarely have we had such unanimous positive feedback from our children.

All of the activities challenged our children’s thinking on very serious issues. The activities were well planned, with clear explanations and most importantly were age appropriate. They were also delivered in a fun way. Seldom have I seen our children so enthused. I actually had a posse of Year 6 children who came to see me to ask if David can come back.

I would quite happily buy David in every year to work with our children. Please do not hesitate to contact me for more information.'

'David came to Emmanuel School on Thursday 6th April to deliver radicalisation talks to our secondary pupils and a keeping safe talk to our Years 4, 5 and 6 pupils. I just wanted to feedback and say how much I appreciated David speaking to our pupils and for the time he spent writing such a brilliant presentation. Our pupils found the presentation interesting and a revelation about all that is going on in the country and shockingly on their doorsteps.The staff said that David was very professional, affable and delivered such a difficult subject faultlessly. I would certainly welcome David back at Emmanuel School in the future or recommend him to other schools'

'I would like to express my grateful thanks for the visit by Dave to my class on Tuesday 23rd May - the day following the dreadful incident in Manchester. All of my class knew what had happened but he dealt with the children's questions about the event very carefully and tactfully - being factual but not putting too much emphasis on the 'awfulness' of the event. Following this, he went on to his prepared presentation about Radicalisation which was delivered at such a level as to allow all children in the class, including those with SEND, to be included in the discussions. His visit was very worthwhile and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to others'
