Amazing and professional delivery, with excellent feedback across the organisation. Sam delivered sessions at Newham college for both academic and business support staff, training more than 100 people. All of them were extremely enthusiastic about the quality of training, professionalism displayed, excellent knowledge and engaging attitude that Sam demonstrated. By popular demand, we now must have her back to train us and I am sure this is the beginning of a successful collaboration. There is much to learn from someone as experienced as Sam. Thank you so much! I strongly recommend.
They ran a really effective and well planned session on accessibility features for SENCOs.
This past term, our school was able to run three Microsoft training workshops with Rachel on OneNote and engagement within the Microsoft 365 suite, and a Copilot launch INSET with Sam, Emma and Ajay on our final day of term. Both the workshops and INSET were a hit with our staff noting they left sessions with tangible outcomes they could immediately use, and that they connected with the trainers' experiences as educators. For me, as the organiser of the training, Rachel and Sam were outstanding in providing thorough planning time and follow-up. A large part of this was differentiating for the wide range of abilities within our staff for each platform. We will certainly be using TA in the future, and in fact are, already this term.
Excellent training that was tailored to meet the specific needs of our staff.
One of many recent training sessions we have booked with TA that not only engaged the team, but provided them with new knowledge to support their work.
Colleagues felt the training was useful and will support their efficiency and workflows. Sam was helpful, thoughtful and adjusted training to ours needs.
VR workshop for open day/evening. Jake had excellent expert knowledge of the product and the students loved it. We also discussed how to use the Tablet academy in future. Thanks Nick
We had a drone workshop at our school for year 8. They loved it. The timing was good, as we had 3 groups, and the level of professionalism was amazing. Thank you. We will definitely book again next year.
The trainers were very knowledgeable and could adapt very quickly to understanding our setting and answer the wide variety of questions colleagues had.
Lego/Drone Workshop This session was booked for 3 hours for an impact day. Jake and Reece arrived early to make sure everything was set up ready for the students to arrive. The session was well organised and the instructions were very clear for the students. There was plenty of kit to allow for paired work rather than bigger groups. The session was adapted for the needs of our students. Jake and Reece were very approachable and made the sessions fun. The students thoroughly enjoyed the morning. Thank you.
Sam the trainer, was knowledgeable and very clear and patient in the way she explained everything.
We selected the MInecraft workshop for our Enrichment day and students were delighted with the activities. It was well-organised, communication prior to the workshop was detailed and professional and made the running of day very smooth. We used our own devices and had 6 workshops running on each day. We are looking forward to booking again and this time for cyber security.
A very positive experience for the students learning and understanding about AI having the opportunity to experience practical activities
Very knowledgeable trainer. Was well prepared and the children and staff were very engaged throughout.
A fabulous day - well organised, great pace and a variety of activities it kept our 'apres SAT's' children fully engaged. All the volunteers were fab - they showed a genuine interest in the children!
Great communication and flexibility before and during the event. Malcom and Simon were both exceptional at delivering the sessions for the children, and followed this with really engaging CPD. The outcomes for the children were both purposeful and powerful, with a real buzz of excitement throughout the group. We would strongly recommend.
The day went well, well organised and well led. The pupils really enjoyed the experience. The prior organisation was understandably rushed, however there was no indication that other schools had been contacted, indeed none were at the venue we as hosts were left with a week to go to see if we could garner support. Aa result the competition element felt a little flat, local schools were denied the opportunity to take part, which meant the overall objective of the day was missed - IET promoting Engineering to a young audience.
Sam at TA continues to deliver bespoke and incredibly relevant and useful training to our school. Her lead up and follow up to sessions is invaluable and we can't wait to have her back soon!
Great communication prior to the event. The Minecraft workshop was well organised, expertly delivered and the students loved it! Thank you!
Supportive and personable trainers who really got to know us and what we needed. Solution focussed and knowledgeable. Excellent training that was tailored to a variety of audiences.
