Miss Dale Mrs Grant
Welcome to Year 6, Oak Tree Class!
I have really enjoyed becoming a member of the wonderful team at Rillington Primary School and getting to know all of the staff and pupils. I am very much looking forward to getting to know all of our families that make up the wider school community.
Previously, I taught for 2 years within Elevate Multi Academy Trust in a mixed age year 3/4 class. Having recently relocated to East Yorkshire, I am very fortunate to be able to continue to embrace all of the teaching and learning strategies that embody Elevate’s vision. As well as year 6 class teacher, I am also maths subject lead and I look forward to continuing to support and enhance the mathematics curriculum across the school.
I have always been passionate about working with children after developing an early background in sports coaching, ensuring that the needs and personal interests of each child are met. Beyond the classroom, I enjoy partaking in sporting activities, spending time with family and friends and going on holiday.
I am very much looking forward to supporting all of the children in year 6, to ensure that they not only reach their full potential, but also that their final year at Rillington Primary School is fun-filled, rewarding and memorable. I hope to equip them with transferable skills and knowledge which will not only prepare them for, but enable them to succeed as they embark on the next stage of their learning journey.
I joined Rillington School last November as a Teaching Assistant and have supported and taught in every class throughout the school. I love the strong sense of family and community here at Rillington, something I am proud to be part of as both a mum and staff member. I am a trained teacher, with over 20 years experience. Working as a teaching assistant means I can support and nurture pupils in ways that suit their learning styles and needs, while also spending lots of quality time with my family.
I love to spend my spare time exploring new places and new food, discovering England's history and enjoying the great outdoors with my husband, two young boys and our dog Lily.
