Until April 2005, I was the Chief Executive of
Harmeny Education Trust Limited , a children and
young peoples charity with a 3.7m turnover. I
was fully responsible for a workforce of over 120
employees. HETL is now well respected in its
specialist work verified by HMIe and Care
Commission reports and external Local Authority
and Scottish Executive led Best Value reports.
As an employer in a specialist field of Care and
Education,it is subject to the various company
and charity legislation. I have been responsible
for the development and funding of two major
capital projects in the last 8 years and have
spearheaded the fundraising effort. I have
Fundraised for Harmeny (c. 4m), and for a
Scottish Motor Neurone Disease Association
project. 2003 (45k). In 2003 I decided that it
was time to make plans for the future and with
the Boards blessing gave a years notice period
for the organisation to plan for the future. I
am currently General Secretary of the Social
Emotional and Behaviour Difficulties Association
(SEBDA) 1999-present I have represented both
Harmeny and SEBDA to Parliamentary sub committees
in the Scottish Parliament, and to various
organisations and groupings across the UK. I
play guitar in a traditional jazz band and sail
my Norfolk Oyster when I get time.
Hello, Im Dot Webb and I run the
earlywormsolutions Specific Learning Difficulties
/ Dyslexia Service. During my career as Teacher,
Headteacher, and Learning Support Adviser, I have
always managed to be adaptable and learn new
skills quickly. I have always maintained good
working relationships with colleagues, parents
and a wide range of professionals. I enjoy being
a team member but am also able to lead if
required. In Scotland I led a working group to
produce a complete Spelling Programme,. This
programme is based on work I developed in
Edinburgh, which was praised by inspectors and
was recommended for the City of Edinburgh Good
Practice Record. I am a conscientious, methodical
teacher who has always endeavoured to provide
structured lessons for my students based on a
thorough assessment of individual learning needs.
To this end I maintain an awareness of new
resources and approaches to support learning,
especially the use of IT. I have attended a range
of courses, which have included Scotopic
Sensitivity, IEP development, Target Setting,
Write Outloud, Co Writer, using an Alpha Smart,
Differentiation and Adaptation as well as
Behaviour Management Strategies (including
Attention Deficit Disorder and Autistic
Spectrum. Since our family move to Lincolnshire
(April 2004) I have followed and passed the
Dyslexia Institute Training Programme and I am
working with both children and adults .
