I have been in education for over 20 years, seven of those years spent at Papatoetoe Intermediate School. During my time in education I have had the privilege of teaching in a diverse range of schools. At Papatoetoe Intermediate School I am part of the Senior Leadership team and am privileged to have the role of SENCo. This role allows myself and the Learning support team to work alongside students who require extra support. My role is varied and covers support for those students on our Learning Support register, ESOL, Refugee students and students with health needs. I work alongside external agencies to ensure we are receiving the very best support and care for our students.
I am committed to the social and academic growth and development of the students at Papatoetoe Intermediate School and believe it is important to build student self esteem and an awareness of cultural diversity.
