Peter
Satchwell
Peter Satchwell taught French, German and Music for twenty
years in comprehensive schools before joining Surrey LEA as Inspector
for Modern Languages. His advisory role included languages in primary
and secondary schools and adult education. His specific enthusiasm
was the introduction of graded objectives into primary and secondary
schools and a pioneering project with the Open College Federation
to bring graded objectives into Surrey and Hampshire adult education
classes.
Peter subsequently
worked as a teacher trainer tutoring the PGCE Modern Languages course
at Sussex University. His pastoral responsibilities for a large
cluster of Surrey primary schools led to a growing interest in primary
methodology and concern for the future of primary languages provision.
Peter has been
a regular speaker at the Primary Languages Show and other CILT courses
and conferences. He currently chairs the national Primary Languages
Network (PLN) of advisers, advisory teachers and teacher trainers
