About Us ...
The Schools Project
is a teacher-led partnership
which builds common sense, hassle-free links between
schools and other bodies
We work with government agencies, professional
organisations and the private sector to develop low-cost
projects that are extremely simple, teacher-friendly and
easily managed.
The Schools Project is not government funded. We
operate on a self-sustaining basis while
all our projects have an ethical dimension, raise the
ambitions, skills or fitness of youngsters, or offer
benefit to the wider community.
Patrick Gaffney is the founder and Director of The
Schools Project. He runs the partnership but
maintains direct links with the classroom by continuing
to teach regularly in schools.
Patrick is an experienced teacher and has written
extensively for primary and secondary schools. He
insists on a common-sense, teacher-friendly approach.
Resources produced by The Schools
Project are developed by practising classroom
teachers. All are designed to save teachers time.
