Testimonials
"Since starting at Burtonwood Primary School 5 years ago, I have seen my role within the institution grow. Having initially started out as a Teaching Assistant, I saw my role develop into an academic mentor and now I am now both a member of the Safeguarding Team and the school’s ELSA (Emotional Literacy Support Assistant) and Lead EBSA (Emotional based school avoidance). Each of these additional roles were suggested to me by senior management, and it is great to know that they both recognise my strengths and support my career development.
Whilst it can be challenging at times, I feel privileged to have the opportunity to work with some of our more vulnerable pupils, helping to support their overall well-being and success both in and out of school in a safe environment. I also enjoy being part of the wider school community; I am lucky to be part of a superb team of staff who work incredibly well together as a team and who put the needs of our fantastic children first."
~ Lindsay Jones, Teaching Assistant
