Welcome to simon-widdowson.com

I am a practising primary educationalist who has focused on the use of ICT within the primary classroom since 1993. I have a detailed knowledge of the English Primary Curriculum, the National Literacy Framework, and am keen to develop links between ICT and literacy through engaging online projects.

I have previously worked as the Digital Teacher in Residence with Nottingham Trent University, during their Writers For the Future project. I worked in schools all over the country (online and offline) on practical ICT literacy projects.

I develop online ICT projects that aim to encourage children to develop their literacy skills through enjoyable and engaging activities, and can train staff on building webpages and websites, as well as providing content for INSET days based around online literacy writing projects.

My  projects can help lead your school in an international direction by linking your pupils and their work with other schools abroad.
