Hi,

My name is Libby - I have been a primary teacher for over 21 years and a senior leader for much of that time. Being a primary teacher, I have taught all subjects - it is hard to pick a favourite! In my leadership role, I designed and implemented curriculums for children aged 5-11 years and was always jealous of the teachers who got to teach it as I had so many ways I’d like to bring the learning to life for the students as I created it. Much of my experience is in KS2, especially Y5 and 6 but my experience spans the whole phase, and older children too. I am trained in delivering phonics from letter names onwards.

As well as teaching, I am passionate about music, playing a few instruments myself and joint founder of a music charity for children in Middlesbrough, MY Middlesbrough.

Excitingly, my first children’s book was published last year - ‘Super Lola’s Super Sticky Success’ and I am busy working on others, including a series of phonics adventures designed for a range of ages, right through to adults.
