I came to Parkland in 2018 and began teaching in Year 6 in addition to being Assistant Head. I have loved my time here building relationships with our families and was thrilled to be appointed as Head of Academy in June 2022.

Early reading is an area of strength in the school. Leaders have ensured a consistent approach to the teaching of phonics. Staff benefit from regular coaching and support to teach phonics to a high standard.
Pupils with SEND are supported effectively in class. Personalised plans identify the actions required to support individual pupils. Leaders work with parents and carers to review the progress of pupils with SEND.
The Co-op curriculum supports the school’s teaching of personal, social, health and economic themes. Pupils learn about other peoples’ faiths and beliefs. They visit places of worship as well as other cultural venues in the city. There are opportunities for pupils to develop leadership responsibilities by representing their peers at the school council.
Members of the eco-warriors group attended a conference to learn about zero-carbon footprints. They have started an after-school club to find ways to reduce the school’s carbon footprint. The many opportunities available to pupils effectively contribute towards supporting their broader development.
