Meet Our Team

Here at Widnes CLC we have a multi-disciplinary team on hand to support your project.

From initial contact, planning and project development, training, technical set-up through to delivery and publishing, you’ll find our staff have the experience and expertise to ensure your objectives are met.

Our curriculum team possesses a wealth of skills in all forms of media production, experience of working on a range of commercial commissions and has planned, delivered and disseminated a diverse range of learning projects to all curriculum phases in most subject areas. Their teaching experience means they are responsive to your particular learning objectives, are familiar with the learning strategies that support them and understand curriculum demands.

Any CLC-based learning project will be enhanced by a planning meeting with our team. Indeed many ICT training needs have been met by staff working alongside our team on project delivery.

Their expertise is underpinned by our admin team whose experience of organising and supporting the booking and financing of projects, equipment, rooms and facilities have ensured the smooth running of our school based and commercial projects for many years.
