BULLIESOUT - Key Persons
Job Titles:
- Member of the Filter Team
- Schools Programme Manager
With a teaching career spanning over 25 years, I have a wealth of experience and skills in working with children and young people. When working as a supply teacher, I was responsible for making sure every child was safe and accounted for, that all planning, preparation and follow-up paperwork was undertaken in a timely and professional manner. I ensured that every child's needs were met while they were in my care and that they had the toolset they needed to function at their optimal level.
As a result of my time in the education sector, and through my own personal development, I am confident with speaking to children, young people, parents, teaching staff, and other professionals both face-to-face and virtually. I know I have a real tangible impact on people's lives and look forward to using my skills to deliver the wonderful work of BulliesOut.
