Tim Randall

former teacher of

Information and Communication Technology

and Science

I taught science in Haughton Comprehensive School in Darlington for 28 years.

From 1992 to 1995 I was seconded as a Curriculum Support Teacher, for science and assessment, in County Durham.

For two and a half years I worked as tutor/Information Technology specialist with TRAC, an educational charity. This was the job that took me to Nottingham.

From 1997 to 2000 I taught Information and Communication Technology in Dagfa House School - the happiest three years of my whole career. Dagfa is a rewarding and caring school in which to teach and learn.

I am now semi-retired and living, once again, in County Durham. I do part-time work developing websites and tutoring course for Education in the Community on Digital Photography and Web Page Design.

During one of my courses, Wayne Munday created a website which I said I would host it so that he could see his work on the World Wide Web. Click to view Wayne's Website.

I first began to use computers in 1979 and bought my own, the first of many, shortly afterwards.

During the 1980s I was heavily involved in programming and had two educational programs published.

I have taught many pupils, teachers and friends to use computers.

During the last few years I have also worked freelance, as both a hardware engineer and a software trainer.

Since retiring I have continued to enjoy using computers for a wide range of activities including developing websites.

Other websites by Tim Randall -

- computers, including website design and image processing.

- home wine-making.

- photography - particularly of the natural world.

- astronomy.

- nature and wildlife.

- gardening.

- sea angling with the Locomotion Sea Angling Club.

Irene and I have been married since 1966, having met at college in Coventry.

We have one son, Michael, born in the early seventies. He is a software support engineer and spends much of his leisure time using computers. Michael, and his soon-to-be-wife Sam, design and produce the PigPog website.

My thanks to Michael and Sam who gave me the domain name of this website for my birthday.

We have good friends and family in the North-East of England, as well as many friends made whilst living in Nottingham.

Since returning to Durham we have gained new friends through voluntary activities, part time work and hobbies.
