| Introduction | MBE. Now retired, I was for many years a primary school teacher and later headteacher. After that I was a Primary Education Adviser, first for a Local Authority and then at national level. I have always loved reading and wanted more than anything to share that love with children. I still read children’s books myself and write a couple of blogs in the hope of continuing to share my passion. I was also very committed to developing children as writers (especially of stories and poetry) and as artists, often linking these together. When I was fortunate enough to be a headteacher our school won many awards and accolades for its creative work, entirely due to the wonderful children and teachers I was privileged to work and learn alongside. |
