“The NPR HUB: the whole thing has been really valuable to help me meet my practice and reflect on my daily engagement with the children.”

The NRP Hub Member

“I am so glad I signed up for the ‘Behaviour that challenges’ training through NPR. Amazing content, which was from experience, and a passion for well-being for not just the children but for staff too, something Teresa feels passionately about…There was so much that I could take back to my Nursery and feedback to my staff…I could ask questions throughout and after …Brilliant training and my favourite part, the amazing quotes and notes given… I would definitely recommend and will be signing up for more!”

Ashleigh Mosely

“Teresa delivered an hours training of behaviour that challenges…this course took my interest…Teresa is very knowledgeable, thorough and has a very approachable manner. The session was very engaging and linked to real life scenarios… I would highly recommend Teresa’s training and advice to all professionals that work with children, even those that work with children older than early years.”

Abbie Wood

“What Teresa does in this short course is ensure that we as practitioners have a secure understanding of the stages of development… she relates it to things we see everyday… I thoroughly enjoyed this course and came away with lots of notes and things that I could implement straight away in my setting.”

Mel Buttery, Early Years Reception Teacher

“Superb watch! Really useful tips…you’re a talented lady.”

Anahita Aderianwalla, Early Years Teacher & Education Consultant

“Your message was really clear and accessible. A very valuable 45 minutes. Your knowledge and passion is clear. The information is precise and actionable immediately. After your session I now get it, the light bulb shone! When is the next course out?”

Abi Tume, Early Years Teacher

“Finding good, reliable, bitsize information that you can breakdown and put into practise straight away is invaluable, thank you.”

Joanne Burrow, Early Years Teacher

“No Pencil Required delivered an excellent standard of training. The workshop was online, engaging and made me reflect on current practise and how I can take what I’ve learnt back into my setting, which was the most important aspect for me… it will help you reflect and take strategies back into your workplace that you can start using straight away.”

Emma-Lynn Bailey, Early Years Practitioner

About Us

Four years ago, No Pencil Required didn’t exist! But then I joined a reception PE class and, despite my 25 years Early Years teaching experience, I came away shocked at how little I knew about a child’s physical development; and I considered myself a highly skilled and knowledgeable teacher. I was mortified!

Inadvertently, I had sent my nursery class onto the next stage in their learning journey ill prepared for what was to come. This lesson highlighted to me how little I knew about mobility and co-ordination, following the instruction as well as carrying out the action – and didn’t it show!
