Bring Dale to your staff room.
Dale Sidebottom built ClassBreak from 14 years of classroom games, and he still teaches them in person. He runs live workshops with thousands of teachers around the world: same games, same energy, straight from the gym floor.
New here? Read the ClassBreak story first.
What he speaks about.
One idea, three angles: teaching should feel like play. The same thinking behind the science of brain breaks.
Play
Why quick, well-run games change the temperature of a classroom, and how to build them into any school day without losing a minute of learning.
Movement and energy
The evidence behind movement breaks, and what happens to focus and behaviour when a class moves before it thinks. The same science behind ClassBreak.
Connection
The games Dale used as a supply teacher in London to build trust with brand-new classes in minutes, and how staff can use them with students and with each other.
Three ways to book him.
Keynote
A high-energy session for conferences and whole-staff events. Expect to be out of your seat. The ideas behind ClassBreak, told through the games themselves.
Workshop
Hands-on and practical. Teachers play the games, then unpack how to run them: timing, grouping, energy management, and what to do when it goes sideways.
Staff PD day
A full day with your staff, shaped around your school. Play in the morning, practice in the afternoon, and a plan every teacher can run on Monday.
