Summary
A compassionate, enthusiastic teacher who has recently relocated from Cork. I graduated in 2021 and since then have completed a Master's in Literacy Education, an area in which I have a great interest. I currently hold a permanent position in East Cork and since moving, am taking a career break for the 2026/2027 school year. I have experience in all class groups, multi-grade, SET and also in EAL.
I have experience leading in school initiatives such as Green Schools.
