Dr James Shea is Principal Lecturer and the Initial Teacher Education Portfolio Leader at the University of Bedfordshire, overseeing all undergraduate and postgraduate teacher education programs. His primary focus is on educating teachers and collaborating with partnership schools through research and teacher education. He is a highly awarded academic whose research expertise covers key areas in cognitive science, including retrieval practice and the use of cognitive load theory in teaching, as well as GCSE student revision strategies. Dr. Audrey Wood is Senior Lecturer in Teacher Education and the course leader for post graduate secondary teacher education at the University of Bedfordshire. Her expertise is built on fifteen years of teaching secondary English in comprehensive schools, before moving into Initial Teacher Education (ITE) at the University of Huddersfield, where she led the Secondary English PGCE and managed various employment-based ITE courses. Stephen Cox is Lecturer in Education (Science) and the PGCE Secondary Science Lead Mentor at the University of Bedfordshire. He is a highly experienced educator, having spent 15 years as a Science and Drama teacher, covering Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Applied Science across all secondary key stages. His dual background—with a science specialism in Biology (ecology) and a drama focus on physical theatre—provides him with a unique and valuable pedagogical perspective.
