'I have to say it's had a huge impact on me. Last year I was nominated as BT Teacher of the year and I still say I wouldn't have been nominated had I not been part of UFA. Moving on from Deputy to Headteacher I am convinced that the brand name of UFA gave my application weight. As soon as you say UFA to someone you're ten times higher than anyone else, you're more employable. In my presentation for Headteacher I talked about UFA techniques and the rationale behind it. The Governors were impressed. It's not just a philosophy; it becomes a whole school ethos.' Shane - UFA Teacher
