Workshops organisation

After initial contact Kate will discuss and plan a workshop to fit your own needs with her flexible approach and relaxed manner making the process an easy one. Kate will arrive in plenty of time before the workshop to set up – all you need to provide is a room with tables and chairs! 

SCHOOL FUNDING: Many of Kate’s publicly funded schools access their PUPIL PREMIUM FUNDING (PPF) to enable a workshop to go ahead. In the 2014 to 2015 financial year, the total pupil premium budget from Central Government funding will increase from £1.875 billion to £2.5 billion. Schools will receive £1300 for each primary pupil who is currently eligible for free school meals (FSM) or has been eligible for FSM in the past 6 years (FSM ‘Ever 6’) and £935 will be allocated for secondary FSM ‘Ever 6’ pupils. This funding does not have to be spent on the pupil individually. A calculator for PPF is available online.

How it works

From experience Kate knows how to interact with large groups of young people who may have varying levels of attention and ability. With this in mind she is able to engage fully with all students using highly visual techniques which instantly have that WOW factor! Encouraging interaction with open questions Kate generally starts the session working on one student as a demo moving on to paired working putting everyone at eas and encouraging students to push their creativity.

Products and Materials

Kate supplies everything you need for the session from her extensive kit ensuring that all products are safe to use on the skin. She can provide a list of suppliers and can also secure discount from her many trade suppliers for stocking or providing school makeup kits.
