About Simon Hunt

I am a primary school teacher who has taught Reception, Year 6 and now a mixed year 3/4 class. I love creative and innovative ways of teaching to engage children. I am an SLE, specialising in creative and innovative teaching ideas. I share some of my ideas through my Facebook page and connect with teachers in the UK and around the world. I have presented at various educational conferences and I have provided CPD sessions, staff meetings and bespoke twilight sessions. I recently spoke at the Superpod 6 event in Seattle USA, alongside the cast of the Netflix documentary Blackfish, where I used Skype to connect the audience with his class back in Tottington! I have also appeared on the BBC and ITV where I have discussed issues and my thoughts on primary education.
