I started working at Rawmarsh Community School in September 2017 as a trainee MFL teacher as part of the Learners First ITT programme. After being offered a full-time MFL teaching post at RCS, I became a part of the developmental NQT programme, which was tailored towards my teaching and development needs. I was able to take part in, and in later years organise, the Y7 French Chateau du Broutel trip, and also run the Y7 football team. In January 2019, I became the Head of Y10 and carried the year group through to Y11. In order to help myself adapt to the role and add to my professional skillset, WPT offered me the chance to complete the NPQML through Learners First. Having completed the NPQML and whilst acting as Head of Y8 at RCS, I became a Governor at Wickersley School and also enrolled on the NPQSL programme, which was again supported by WPT. In December 2021, I was delighted to be appointed Assistant Headteacher at Clifton Community School. Throughout my career thus far, I have been extremely lucky to receive support and advice from outstanding colleagues, and to have had the opportunity to enrol in Professional Development programmes supported by WPT.
