Toddler Teacher and Director of Student Welfare for Toddlers t...
After studying Early Years Education Studies and earning a First Class BA (Hons) degree, I undertook a PGCE at Liverpool Hope University. I worked for four years in a large primary school in the Wirral (England) where I taught children in Reception. In addition to my role as class teacher, I was a member of the senior leadership team and led the Foundation Stage in this setting. Whilst working, I studied for a Master’s degree in Teaching and Learning which I completed in 2013.
Working internationally has always been something which I have been keen to do. An international school is a unique environment to work in as it presents a new range of demands and expectations.
Nursery Teacher
After completing a degree in Primary Education at Canterbury Christ Church University, I worked in a small seaside town in South East England for three years teaching Reception children. The Reception team worked closely together to ensure all children made progress and enjoyed their time in school. I was responsible for ensuring the smooth transition from Nursery to Reception, school trips and was the coordinator for Design and Technology across the school. I also organized and ran workshops for parents in phonics and math. Whilst working I studied for, and completed, my Masters in Early Childhood Education.
I trained at Goldsmiths College in London qualitfying with a BA in Education with QTS. I have taught in three schools in the past 16 years teaching a range of year groups from Reception to Year 6. During these years, I have been a Mentor on the Graduate Teacher Program, PE, Literacy and Maths co-ordinator, EYFS leader, Ks1 leader, and part of the SLT in two schools.
I am very proud to have been a part of the Graduate Teacher program where I trained three teachers over three years to become Primary School teachers. This was an exciting role as it was linked to a University where I had additional training and was able to support adults from other roles in their venture to become teachers.
Reception Class Teacher
After completing my undergraduate degree at the University of Edinburgh and falling in love with Scotland, I decided to stay and complete my postgraduate studies in Primary Teaching. I taught in and around Edinburgh for the last decade, working with a variety of ages across primary school. Before moving to Boston, I completed my Forest School training and very much enjoy getting the children outdoors to learn. Not long after my training, I was apointed to lead the development of the digital learning strategy for the City of Edinburgh, working with children ages 3-18.
I moved to Boston with my husband and young daughter a little over a year ago and we have thoroughly enjoyed all of our New England adventures. I am really pleased to be part of such a great learning community at the British International School of Boston and it is wonderful to see all of the children meeting their potential every day.
I am the longest serving member of staff at the British International School of Boston and have been teaching here since 2001. Before working at BISB, I was teaching in York, UK. In total I have been teaching children for 23 years. My initial degree was in History, and after I had graduated from the University of Wales, I completed my P.G.C.E. at the University College of Ripon and York St. John in York. I have taught across the range of primary year groups. Before I left the UK, I was the Senco at the school that I worked. Teaching in Reception this year will mean that I have taught all the grades from Nursery to Year 6 in my career so far.
