Speaking for Primary, Intermediate and High Schools

May 2012: Read Education Gazette article on the William Pike Challenge Award

William is the perfect role model - an ideal speaker for schools. Unique experiences and wide-ranging achievements, combined with a bubbly but humble personality and sense of humour; means it's hard to find anyone else to fill William's shoes (or Shoe!?). 

As a young author, outdoor enthusiast, health and fitness fanatic, experienced practicing primary school teacher, and amputee - William has a lot to offer in his 'made to order' presentations.

Possible topics include: careers, health and well-being, goal setting, a positive attitude, overcoming adversity, choosing to succeed, language and literature, inspiration and motivation - or all of the above!

You can add a lasting touch to your function and ask William to bring copies of his autobiography for personal autographing.

Feedback on William's presentation:

November, 2011 - ACG Sunderland School, West Auckland


“William has spoken to our school on two occasions for different age groups; College and Primary. On both occasions William has captured the audience and given a clear message to the students and their families. We would highly recommend William as a motivational speaker; he understood our brief and delivered without question.”

“William delivered a very professional Power Point to staff and 130 Year 7 and 8 pupils while captivating his audience with his experiences and positive message on how to set goals and achieve the best they can. Valuing family and friends, while keeping a healthy and fit life-style....Having such a young motivational speaker to talk to our intermediates left a huge impression (especially his positive attitude) which for many will be life-lasting.”
