Welcome to Year 5 and 6!
Miss Boyle
I am the English lead across school and I am very passionate about mental health. I absolutely love teaching Year 6 and I enjoy all subjects but if I was to choose one lesson to be my favourite to teach, it would be Maths. My favourite time of the day is when we get to share our class book as I adore getting myself lost in a good story. Outside of school, I enjoy baking, going on long walks, spending time with my family on the farm and also spending time with my pets (Tilly, cat, and Gus and Meg, dogs).
Mrs Gillam
As well as teaching year 5 and 6 I lead a number of subject areas across school, my favourite being History. I am extremely passionate about ensuring we deliver an inclusive History curriculum so that all of our school family are represented. Like Miss Boyle, I love sharing our class book and really look forward to that time of the day when we can sit, relax and immerse ourselves in a good story. Outside of school, I love running, reading and walking my dog Rosie.
Mr Norton
As well as teaching Year 5 and 6, I have other responsibilities across school including assessment and working closely with Mrs Gillam on the curriculum. I am also extremely passionate about inclusion and developing adaptive teaching techniques to ensure all my students thrive. I enjoy using drama to teach, particularly in English where we often become immersed within a text. Outside of school, I enjoy playing football at the weekends for the mighty Styal FC and spending time with my family.
