Steps 2 Learning
About the Author
This website is the creative idea of Gordon Aspland, a former primary school Headteacher and now SEN teacher working with children, 6-16, who cannot access mainstream school. Gordon is also a published author who has written several books of short stories and plays for teachers and Headteachers . These books look at personal , social and moral issues that affect children today and are widely used by primary schools throughout the country. They are published by Southgate Publishers and can be seen on www.southgatepublishers.co.uk.
Gordon has always enjoyed creating resources for children, sometimes used in the classroom and sometimes on a one-to-one basis with a child who had a specific learning need. He found that bought published materials often did the job but there were many times when something different was needed. Soon he had built up a collection of very useful resources and after prompting by his colleagues he decided to set up this website.
Gordon now spends a great amount of his time each week designing and writing resources for this web site. He hopes that all the subscribers will find the resources useful and would welcome comments and ideas for future development.
