Mrs C Biddle

Phase Leader Years 1 & 2 / Year 2 Teacher - 2CB

I've been teaching at Webheath for many years across Key Stage 1 and 2; and I absolutely love it! Apart from seeing lots of smiley faces everyday, my favourite thing is watching the children have those 'light bulb' moments when they realise they can do it and they build their self belief. Outside of school, I enjoy time with my family and taking my dog, called Rosie, on long walks over the fields.

Mrs Rhodes

Year 2 Teacher - 2JR/KE

I have been teaching at Webheath Primary School since January 2008.
I am currently a teacher in Year 3 and the PSHE lead.
I love teaching as every day is different! I love to create enjoyable and fun learning experiences within the classroom that creates happy memories for the children I teach that will hopefully last a lifetime.
Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I am a doting grandmother to 3 beautiful granddaughters who I love playing and having fun with. I have a white Boxer dog called Ghost who loves to go on long walks and roll in muddy puddles!

Miss Evans

Year 2 Teacher - 2JR/KE & OPAL Lead

I have been teaching for nearly 8 years now and all these years have been spent at Webheath. I am currently teaching in Year 2 and have really embraced the move down to Key Stage 1 from Key Stage 2. I am currently sharing the job of PE Lead, with Miss Steele, and really enjoy this role due to my passion for sport and the great outdoors. Furthermore, I am currently leading the implementation of the OPAL programme, which I am thoroughly enjoying and can’t wait to see how our OPAL journey continues to progress. Outside of school, I spend most of my time with my little girl getting outside as much as we can. I am also a huge Liverpool fan!

Mrs Broome

Teaching Assistant Year 2

I've worked as a Teaching Assistant at Webheath since 2022, having previously worked at a children's charity for 8 years. What I love about this role is that I feel a huge sense of achievement when helping to support each child on their learning journey and it brings me great joy seeing the difference that I can help to make to their progression and development. In my spare time I'm an avid reader (I love escaping in a good book) and enjoy arts and crafts.

Mrs Greaves

Specialist Teaching Assistant (Phonics & Reading) / Year 2

I began working at Webheath in 2009 when my own children were still at the school. I find supporting the children with their learning very rewarding, and have spent time with most year groups over the years. On a personal note, you may see me out and about in the local area, either running, walking or cycling. I do enjoy the outdoors!

Day What?
Monday Outdoor PE
Thursday Indoor PE

Homework:

On occasions, homework packs are given to children.  These tasks are to reinforce the classroom learning and provide further practise to embed skills.  There are no timeframes for these tasks to be completed.

Reading

Children will continue to bring home a weekly ‘reading for pleasure’ book for you to share and enjoy with your child.  In addition, they will bring home their Book Club book which matches their phonetic ability to celebrate their reading practise throughout the course of the week in ‘Book Club’.
For those children who are not yet proficient in their phonics, following the Sound!Start Phonics Scheme continues.
Once your child is an established, fluent reader, they may be assigned to Accelerated Reader.  When this is the case, you will be provided with information regarding this to explain the new program which will continue throughout their time at Webheath.

Maths

We follow a mastery approach, working through using concrete materials and manipulatives to enable children to make links within their mathematical understanding.

In Year 2, we focus on all children being able to recall and use the multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5 and 10 multiplication tables.

Book bags only to be bought into school. We do not have room to store large school bags.
