Hello, my name is [Donna Trebell]!

Donna Trebell



MORE ABOUT ME...


Having held a variety of Design and Technology related posts including Head of Department, I am now the Lead AST for the West Kent Learning Federation and Member of the Extended Leadership Team at Mascalls School in Kent. The Lead AST role involves leading a team of fifteen ASTs in their outreach activities across eighteen schools in West Kent in order to meet the development needs identified by the WKLF Headteachers.

My work at Mascalls includes the following:
  • teaching Design and Technology at KS3, 4 and post sixteen,
  • leading a team of learning mentors from across the school in support of the development of teaching and learning,
  • acting as assessor to a number of NQTs,
  • mentoring middle managers in Art and Design and Design and Technology
  • supporting developments in project based learning.

In 2004 I was responsible for the launch and follow up training for the key stage 3 Design and Technology Framework in Kent. I now sit on the Editorial Board for the Design and Technology Association focussing particularly on KS3 as well as sitting on the Secondary Examination and Advisory Group.

I am also one of the South East Regional Advisers for the New Secondary Design and Technology Curriculum. In this capacity I have helped run briefing and follow up training sessions for teachers across the South East.

In addition to this I am in the final stages of a doctorate in education which focuses’ on the study of classroom interaction during designerly activity. Through this work I have been able to identify the features of classroom interaction which support the development of designerly activity in fledgling designers.
