Shorolla Allen

I’m a bubbly, creative tutor with a strong background in both education and youth services. I previously worked as a secondary school science teacher with a specialism in Biology, and I hold a BSc in Sport Science, an MA in Social Work, and a YJEP qualification in Youth Justice. I currently lead on Learning and Development across Youth Justice and Fostering and Adoption services, designing and delivering creative, interactive, and immersive learning experiences.

In 2025, I co-authored a book on creative approaches to assessing risk in social work, contributing a chapter focused on navigating difficult conversations with confidence and compassion. I’m passionate about making learning engaging and meaningful for children, families, practitioners, and services alike—bringing energy, empathy, and real-world experience into every session.
