Selected Testimonials – Charlotte

What the Children say, write, draw….

Ms. Charlotte and Dr. Benjamin are always supportive and encouraging. They make sure that I am not overworked, ask me how I am doing from time to time, and ask me how they can help. They are very approachable and easy to talk to openly. People you can trust, I’d say.

Recommendation Letter

Charlotte is an experienced teacher and she has assumed leadership roles throughout her career. Charlotte performs her teaching duties at Prem with significant commitment and intention. Charlotte is an inspiring teacher. Her planning is constructed to maximise student learning and she is responsive to students’ academic and social-emotional needs. Charlotte establishes clear routines and has a mutually respectful rapport with her students. She takes a lot of extra time to ensure students are cared for and to build relationships with parents, such that they are her partners in their children’s educational lives.
 
Charlotte capably coordinates her learning program so all students are catered for, and she achieves strong results, helping young learners progress and maximise their potential. Students in Charlotte’s class acquire independence and confidence. Her learning program is student-centred, engaging and effectively challenges every student to progress beyond their current capabilities. Charlotte possesses significant expertise and ability in the areas of Literacy Education and Extended Learning. Her Literacy program is exceptionally well-crafted. She has a refined understanding of how to cater for the needs and passions of students with advanced abilities, so that they experience the challenges and inspirations that they need in order to thrive.

During her tenure at Prem, Charlotte has worked as a driving force alongside a small group of colleagues to create a whole-school Eco Committee. This student committee has worked tirelessly to grow Prem’s sustainability practices, and after a short time, achieved Green Flag status for the school. This was a very significant and unifying experience for our school community. 

I have had the privilege to witness the rich growth Charlotte affords her students, both from the perspective of a Principal, and as a parent of one of the students in her class. Should your school be so fortunate to add Charlotte to your team, your teaching and learning program will be positively impacted. I offer potential employers my recommendation for Charlotte’s candidacy.

School to School Consultancy

I was just emailing to let you know…I was observed in History and in Numeracy, where I was graded a good for history and an outstanding for Numeracy! I just wanted to let you know as I really couldn’t have achieved that without your support earlier this year, I took a lot of your advice on…So thank you very much for all your support! Year 6 teacher

I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience and support that Charlotte has been able to offer me. I have acted upon advice given and have personally seen an improvement in my own confidence and role within the lesson… I feel that Charlotte has aided and guided me to activities that will help me in moving the children’s learning on, in addition to having a greater understanding of what makes a successful classroom now. Year 6 teacher

I have developed many different ideas and strategies to implement in the classroom. I have developed my A4L strategies and how to show the progress in lessons through a range of assessment opportunities. I have learned how to involve all children through movement and a greater use of talk time within lessons. I feel that I have developed the skill to empower children by ’stepping back’ and allowing them to work things out on their own and to take charge of their own learning. Also, I realise that at some point in every lesson there should be an exciting moment to try to keep everyone alert in learning. I have realised that if the level of work is of a sufficient challenge then it allows all children to work interdependently…I have enjoyed the past few weeks and gained a lot of ideas that I have put into my teaching. It has been good bounce ideas with another teacher. Year 6 teacher

The targets identified are clear and concise and will no doubt improve standards for the pupils. It is great to see the progress already made towards the targets through the support given by Charlotte. The support and guidance provided by Charlotte will also have a wider impact on pupils at XXX when XXX shares this outstanding practice with others. Deputy Headteacher.
