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.
