      Responsible for the preparation, planning and delivery of well paced, engaging lessons which take into account the ability, strengths and weaknesses of all pupils. Frequent and effective assessment, marking of books and setting of relevant, achievable homework help ensure that all pupils are adequately challenged to make progress in line with their potential.I have been a form tutor throughout my employment at Thamesmead School through the many changes that have been made to the pastoral structure. I have been responsible for a vertical group with pupils from Years 7 – 11, a KS4 form and now a Year 10 group as we have made our way to a fully horizontal, year group structure. Despite the significant change in pastoral structure, I have striven to maintain high standards of care for all my tutees, maintaining positive, professional yet friendly relationships with both tutees and parents. I take my duty of care to all my students very seriously.
