Rob was a gifted and inspirational A level teacher for more than 20 years, including Head of Psychology at KGV College in Southport. He 'retired' early to take up a new career in writing books for A level Psychology, joining our close-knit team who produce books for Psychology A level, GCSE and BTEC.
