  St Peter's School, HuntingdonHead of MFL DepartmentFrenchSecondary

  I have worked in my present post for a number of years and have seen the benefits of improving and developing teachers' practice in order enhance students' learning.  As my department has evolved, I have had the opportunity to develop a team of new colleagues.  I have shared my knowledge and skills through support and CPD in order to enhance their teching capabilities.  I have succeeded in broadening the uptake of KS4 and KS5.  I am an in-school coach, after completion of the Outstanding Teacher Programme, working to improve teaching and learing on a whole school basis.  I have mentored several NQTs in the last three years and am currently in the process of completing my NPQSL, for which I have coached two heads of department.  Through this coaching team I am also delivering whole school CPD to colleagues.  I am one of a small group of staff who are developing Quality Assurance in school and in liaison with other Trust schools.
