Educators of the Term

“Ciar has leapt at the opportunity for morning intervention lessons with a Yr 13 class, going through Maths A-level and providing them with additional support and feedback. He has taken on additional timetabled Year 11 intervention sessions to support pupils who are pushing for grade 4s, and is creating and making resources to further guide and support them. He has always been happy and enthusiastic to support those who some may deem more difficult, and never gives up with his positive attitude and energy! Some may say it's infectious!”

“Julija is a highly self-motivated individual who consistently goes above and beyond in her role, requiring little direction whilst always delivering to an exceptional standard. She is an excellent communicator who has built strong, productive relationships with Senior Leadership, departments across the school, and students at all levels. Most impressively, she has completely transformed the library at our campus, creating a warm, inspiring and purposeful space through her thoughtful attention to displays, the environment, and the wider atmosphere. She has also led a rich programme of activities and events that have genuinely brought the library to life and fostered a love of reading and learning within our school community.”

“Is a quiet but very confident staff member who has a big impact in her class and works very well as a team. She has a very good understanding of how our learners work, and how to get the best out of them. She also has a positive attitude which rubs off on those around her.”

“Our nomination is Keeley. Top-notch professionalism and commitment to students' development and education. She showed up with class, and she is setting an excellent standard.”

“He is positive and enthusiastic and has built strong relationships with our SEND students, particularly working with a student with complex needs who has been doing really well at school recently! Parent feedback for Jordan has also been positive.”

“She has supported lessons effectively and has proven to be an invaluable presence in the classroom. Viktoria consistently circulates effectively among pupils, offering thoughtful guidance without doing the work for them. She encourages independence by asking well-judged questions and providing gentle prompts.”

“He is always willing to help and never says no. Always looking for solutions and goes out of his way to support others. I would add to this his keenness to make sure our bikes are in working order as well!”

“Michelle has supported three children with ASD in our Reception & Yr 1 class whilst working with us, & all of these children have made incredible progress in all areas. Michelle's work has ensured that the start of their school journey has been wonderfully positive, & her interventions have been tailored to their individual needs whilst pushing them to achieve their goals, ultimately making them less dependent on her help. She is conscientious, reliable and takes initiative, all key attributes for a successful and impactful TA. Michelle has cared for & supported all the children and adults around her, and we feel this award would be well suited to such an amazing candidate!”

“Chifum is the guy. Relates well with staff, connects well with students, and he's of great help to SEND students in and outside of the classroom. We genuinely appreciate his dedication and hard work.”

“Sowmya provides outstanding support continuously, & on two recent specific occasions that stand out. Her good humour and encouragement spurred the students on when they were struggling. Sowmya's support went above & beyond what was expected. She is making a difference to students' lives & supporting colleagues to do the same.”

“Petar is a star, he made a great start and impact not even a week in. He really is such an asset to our school.”
