I am one of the Reception teachers at Webheath. I am very passionate about early education. It is uplifting to be part of a curriculum which is inspired by capturing the children’s interests and promoting a love of learning. I believe in Reception we are the foundation to engaging your children into enjoying and taking control of their learning. Whilst at school I enjoy getting creative in the art area and spending time in the mud kitchen trying out new recipes served by the children. I want your children’s Reception year at Webheath to be happy and full of wonderful memories of make new friends, getting creative, being curious, enjoying lots of stories, learning new skills, solving problems and so much more. It is a privilege to watch the children at Webheath achieve in so many areas of their learning. I am very fortunate to work with a team of staff that will go over and beyond to provide the children with the best education.

I am a year 1 teacher at Webheath and began teaching here in April 2023. I have been a teacher for 6 years and have worked with children in all year groups across the primary setting. I am passionate about music and currently lead music here at Webheath. Outside of school, I am a musician and play flute, saxophone, piano and love to sing too. I have been a part of many different choirs, orchestras and bands throughout my life and love passing on my knowledge to the children I teach.

I have been a teacher for eight years and love to have a sing and a dance in the classroom to make our learning as fun as possible. My favourite lessons are Art, Maths and Geography. In my free time, I enjoy going for walks and spending time with my family.

Within my teaching career I have taught across both Key Stage 1 and 2, and have now arrived at Webheath, keen to teach in Year 4. From the age of eight, I knew I was destined to become a teacher; passionate in making every child’s school journey a happy and successful experience. I enjoy teaching the whole curriculum, but particularly, I love to read, put my maths skills into practice and be creative within art. Outside of school, I continue to show my creativity by baking and decorating cakes.

I started teaching in 2019 and I have a true passion for my job, seeing children achieve in areas they find difficult and the confidence they feel when they finally say I can do it’ is one of the best parts of my job. I enjoy making the learning fun for children I teach. My favourite subject is Art as I love to get creative but I also enjoy English and being creative in my writing. Outside of work I like to keep fit and exercise by going to the gym or for a swim. I am a true animal lover and would love to be able to bring my pet rabbit, Bonnie into my classroom one day.

This is my 8th year teaching at Webheath. I enjoy teaching maths and geography as there is always something new to learn! At the weekends, I'm often found watching my son play rugby or following his favourite football team.

I began my teaching career some 33 years ago in Wiltshire. I moved to Worcestershire after my husband's job move to Birmingham. I have taught across the Primary Age range and am currently supporting in a variety of Year groups to allow classteachers time for management, PPA and subject leadership. I love the enthusiasm of Primary age children and those 'light bulb' moments when they suddenly understand something they previously found tricky! It makes it so worthwhile. In my spare time I enjoy going to the theatre, knitting projects, pilates, yoga and taking Stanley, my springer spaniel on long walks.
