I am a primary school teacher from the UK. I've worked in both KS1 and KS2 but I'm currently based in Year 5. I have been teaching for seven years and have been Head of English at a prestigious private school for two.
I believe attainment stems from engagement, and the two main ways I engage pupils are by creating meaningful relationships and teaching with exciting resources!

I studied at Oxford Brookes University towards my BSc in Psychology, and continued on there for my PGCE (5-11) in Primary Education. I graduated my bachelors with a 2:1, and within the top 5% of my PGCE class.
I'm a musical theatre nut, a heavy bibliophile and a hoarder of new and, often inconsequential, skills.
