Area of Specialism: Literacy, Numeracy, Quality of Teaching, Behaviour and Discipline

As a Key Stage 2 Leader, Year 6 teacher and Literacy and Numeracy Subject Leader at Our Lady and St Patrick's I have helped our Cumbrian primary school achieve its 'Outstanding' status. I have also worked for many years creating, improving and marking Year 6 SATs at a national level.
Daily within the classroom, I create innovative learning opportunities for children, which have contributed significantly to high, and consistently improving, standards.
Additionally, I support staff to help them identify any barriers to learning, and together we develop a range of inventive, personal and sometimes unconventional solutions to improve each unique situation.
