G.I.F.T.S Teaching Series, short for “Great Innovative Fun Teaching Series,” is a teaching series developed by Anna Szuminska for students with special educational needs. The website has a clear positioning: it serves pupils, teachers, and parents, with content covering areas such as Sensory, Music, P.E., and Art. It also offers courses, workshops, training days, and publications. Its core goal is to help special schools and teachers build more continuous and scalable curriculum plans, while reducing the burden on teachers to repeatedly create materials from scratch.
In terms of curriculum areas, it focuses on special educational needs settings, especially more hands-on classroom activities such as sensory integration, music, physical education, and art. As for delivery formats, the site only mentions Sensory Day Courses, Music Day Courses, Workshops, Training Days, and a PDF course booking form. It is not possible to determine whether live online classes, recorded lessons, or one-to-one formats are available. The instructor background is a major strength of the project: Anna Szuminska holds an M.Ed, has long worked in teaching students with special needs, has taught in the UK and overseas, and has served as a head of music in a special school and as a visiting music specialist. She has also worked as a consultant for several UK special schools.
The website does not disclose pricing, payment methods, course duration, upcoming course dates, or whether any certification or certificate is issued. Therefore, if a school is considering purchasing teacher training, it should use Contact Me or download the booking form to further confirm costs, participant numbers, location, whether materials are included, and whether proof of training can be provided.
The advantages are that the courses clearly come from frontline special education experience, emphasize being practical and useable, and include positive feedback from several special school teachers. The topics are also well suited for teachers to adapt directly into classroom activities. The drawbacks are that the website feels relatively static and lacks transparency, with no trial lessons, detailed syllabus information, pricing page, or explanation of a modern online learning platform.
It is better suited for special school teachers, inclusive education teachers, school administrators, and parents who want to design sensory or music-based activities. The site does not provide enough information to determine accessibility from China, and payment methods are also not specified. If participating from China, it is important to confirm whether remote training is available, what level of English communication is required, how cross-border payments work, and how materials are delivered. Alternatives worth considering include local special education teacher training, sensory integration training courses, and music therapy-related institutions.
