Summary

I have recently graduated from the University of Sussex with a BA in Primary and Early Years Education with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). During my training, I completed several teaching placements, including where I gained experience planning and delivering lessons, assessing pupil progress, and supporting learning across the primary age range. Alongside my teaching experience, I have worked as a football coach and helped coordinate games and activities at a children's holiday club, supporting children's participation and engagement. I have also worked in customer-facing roles at a Post Office and a bar, gaining experience working with a wide range of people in busy environments.
