Class Teacher | Greenleaf Primary School, London | September 2024 – August 2026

During my time at Greenleaf Primary School, I delivered high-quality teaching and learning across Key Stage 2, creating a supportive and engaging classroom environment in which pupils could thrive. I used assessment data to identify individual learning needs and implemented targeted interventions to support progress and improve outcomes. I placed great importance on building positive relationships with pupils, parents and colleagues, ensuring effective communication and a collaborative approach to learning. Alongside my classroom responsibilities, I contributed actively to the wider school community, working closely with colleagues and managing competing priorities while consistently maintaining high professional standards.

During my time at Culloden Primary Academy, I combined classroom teaching with a range of curriculum leadership and professional development responsibilities. I led curriculum improvement initiatives and coordinated science curriculum delivery across seven schools within the trust, helping to ensure consistency and high standards of teaching and learning. I also planned and delivered training sessions for colleagues, supporting their professional development and the implementation of effective teaching strategies. My responsibilities included analysing pupil performance data to identify trends, inform strategic planning and improve educational outcomes, as well as managing resources and supporting curriculum development. Throughout this role, I developed strong working relationships with pupils, parents, colleagues and senior leaders, contributing to a collaborative and ambitious school environment.

During my teacher training, I gained valuable experience teaching across the primary age range, developing a strong foundation in lesson planning, assessment, classroom management and effective communication.

This experience strengthened my understanding of effective teaching and learning and enabled me to develop the skills and confidence necessary to become a successful classroom teacher.

Teaching Assistant | Culloden Primary Academy, London | September 2015 – August 2017

As a Teaching Assistant, I supported pupils' learning and wellbeing through whole-class assistance, individual support and targeted small-group interventions, including working with children with special educational needs. I worked closely with class teachers to adapt learning activities and provide additional support to pupils who required it, helping them to develop their understanding, confidence and independence. I also established positive relationships with pupils and colleagues, demonstrating flexibility, teamwork and a commitment to creating an inclusive and supportive learning environment.

positive outcomes. Experienced working collaboratively across teams, managing competing demands, and supporting improvement initiatives.

Now looking for a change, but looking to use my expertise as a Y6 and SATS specialist in a tutoring role.

With around ten years’ experience as a primary school teacher, I have worked with pupils across a wide range of abilities and understand that children make the best progress when teaching is carefully matched to their individual needs. My approach is supportive, patient and encouraging, while maintaining high expectations and a clear focus on progress. I aim to identify the specific gaps, misconceptions or barriers that may be holding a pupil back and use clear explanations, modelling and carefully structured practice to build both understanding and independence.

I place particular importance on developing pupils’ confidence. I want children to feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions and attempting something they initially find difficult. At the same time, I believe tutoring should be purposeful and responsive, so I use ongoing assessment to adapt sessions and ensure that our time is focused on the areas where it can have the greatest impact. Above all, I aim to create sessions that are engaging, challenging and positive, helping pupils become more confident and successful learners.

I enjoy spending time with my wife and five-year-old daughter, whether that’s exploring London or enjoying family days out. I’m a keen reader and music lover, and I enjoy going to the cinema whenever I get the chance. I also play football regularly with friends, which is a great way to stay active and socialise.
