PASTORAL & SENCO TEAM
My 20 year’s experience as a primary class teacher has provided me with a wealth of knowledge and insights into children's development across various key stages and a deep understanding of their academic, social, and emotional needs. For the past few years I have been training in the emotional regulation and development of children, working 1:1 and in small groups supporting children and families. I am dedicated to supporting the holistic growth and well-being of children by teaching children strategies for recognising and managing their emotions, fostering empathy and self-awareness, and building healthy coping mechanisms. As pastoral lead, my role involves providing support and guidance to students and families, to promote their emotional well-being, personal development, and overall welfare within the school community. It encompasses a range of responsibilities aimed at fostering a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment where students can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
