Ann Jordan
Norfolk
Summary
I have had ten years experience of working in diverse classroom environments and have gained strategies to help me understand and work with students who struggle in the school environment.
I have clear classroom expectations of behavior and apply these in a caring and nurturing manner that enables students to grow emotionally and learn how to express their feelings in different ways.
I strive to provide a classroom environment that helps students to feel calm and safe, and where they can challenge themselves emotionally and educationally without fear of 'getting it wrong'
I believe that one of the most important skills is being able to build positive relationships, with students and other members of staff.
I have led attendance in my current school and have improved attendance by developing relationships with struggling students and parents.
I am currently training to be a SENCO. The course finishes in October 2024.
During my career at my current school I have been Head of Primary, Assistant Head teacher and Deputy Headteacher.
