FLANSHAW JUNIOR AND INFANT SCHOOL - Key Persons

The School's House Teams are based on 4 famous pe ople from Wakefield: Gissing, Hepworth, Moore and Tomlinson. Each phase across school studies one of these House Teams. Year 3/4 study George Gissing. A writer with a troubled past who did not find fame easily, but I will let the children's biographies explain.

Hello, I'm Mike Woodburn, Deputy Head at Flanshaw School. I have been in my current role since 2017 and I am responsible for developing the curriculum and leading English. I am passionate about teacher training; I mentor trainee teachers and I lead the ECT programme for new teachers. Out of school, I am kept on my toes by my three young children, Oliver, Joshua and Lily and I enjoy playing a range of sports including football and golf. I enjoy being part of the governing body, helping to drive standards at school and working collaboratively to plan new and exciting projects.
