A bit about me	I have been the EYFS teacher at Ullesthorpe CE Primary School since 2015. I have been a teacher for 19 years and have previously taught in both Key Stage 1 & 2. Currently I lead the subject of Science, striving to promote and support the quality of teaching and learning in this area of the curriculum.

Key Governor responsibilities	Co-opted governor
A bit about me	Although I originally trained as a teacher (specialist subject Art and PE), most of my career has been concerned with payroll and pensions - 10 years at managerial level with the Learning and Skills Council (formerly the Further Education Funding Council) followed by 10 years with a local university. I am an avid believer in lifelong learning - you're never too young or too old - and have always especially enjoyed the training and development aspects of any roles I have been involved in. Recently retired from full time employment, I now have time to pursue my interests in all things "crafty" and travel as much as possible, as well as spend valuable time with our two children and three grandchildren. Our eldest grandson is currently a pupil at Ullesthorpe.
One thing I love about the school	The school is exceptional at being inclusive and transformative, enabling pupils (and their parents) to feel supported and valued so that the child's potential can be nurtured and realised.
