30 seconds with…Rosco Hunt

Position within School:

Lead PE

3 things great about my job:

  1. Spending time outdoors!
  2. Seeing young people grow and develop through sport
  3. Wearing shorts to work in the summer!

Interests outside of school:

  • Football
  • Peaky Blinders!
  • Seeing friends and family

One thing I would change in the world and why:

I would get rid of smart phones because people are becoming obsessed with them and losing their social skills!

30 seconds with…Miss Brooksbank

Position within school:

Teacher of Geography and Lead Teacher for Teaching and Learning

Name 3 things that are great about your job:

  1. Helping a student and seeing them make progress. There is nothing better within a classroom than seeing a student go from not understanding to realising they can actually do it.
  2. Changing a student’s opinion on my subject. Some come in saying that they don’t like geography and that they can’t do it. It is so rewarding when you see the same student either picking it as a GCSE option down the line, or writing a thank you note saying it is one of their favourite subjects.
  3. Working with other teachers to make the school become the best that we can be. We have a great team of teachers here and we all work hard to achieve this.

Interests outside school:

I enjoy city breaks and being able to experience different places and cultures, which is so important in geography. I also like spending time with my friends and catching up. As I am not originally from down here, I also enjoy going home and seeing my old school friends.

Biggest inspiration and why:

My biggest inspirations in life are those people who show resilience. Malala Yousafzai grew up in an area of Pakistan, where the Taliban had banned young girls from attending school. Malala became an advocate for girls’ education when she herself was still a child. This resulted in the Taliban issuing a death threat against her. On October 9, 2012, a gunman shot Malala whilst she was sat on a school bus waiting to travel home from school. She survived and has continued to speak out on the importance of education, her words “one child, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world,“ I hold dear. My second inspiration is a little closer to home, my mum. At a relatively young age, I lost my father and my mum always encouraged me, my brother and my sister to achieve our goals, no matter the unforeseen obstacles which we can often face.

30 seconds with…Judith Bundock

Position within school:

PA to the Head Teacher

Name 3 things that are great about your job:

  1. Every day is different with daily challenges
  2. I like the people I work with, and how much they care about the students, the families, and each other
  3. I enjoy seeing children learn and grow through school to become confident, articulate young adults

Interests outside school:

I enjoy martial arts, travel, and spending time with my family

Biggest inspiration and why:

My mum! She came from a small northern town and was the first woman in her family to leave and move to London with her husband to start a new life; first to learn to drive; first to holiday abroad and first to own her own home.   She was a bit of a pioneer in her younger days and remained an inspiration to me all my life.

One thing in the world would change and why:

I would dearly love to see all people show compassion, respect and tolerance to everyone, no matter their religion, race, sex or nationality.  Simple really!

30 seconds with…Alison Mansfield

Position within school:

Chef Manager

Name 3 things that are great about your job:

  1. We have a laugh
  2. I am very busy
  3. I feel I make a difference

Interests outside school:

  • Toby carvery!
  • Reading
  • Theatre
  • Spending time with friends and family

Biggest inspiration and why:

My family, they are kind, honest, affectionate and loyal.

One thing in the world would change and why:

Homelessness, everyone deserves a place to call home and to sleep!

30 seconds with…Brandie Noseworthy

Position within school

History Teacher and Yr 8 Form Tutor

Name 3 things that are great about your job:

  1. New challenges every day.
  2. Being able to watch students’ progress and excitement about their learning.
  3. Being able to build professional relationships with students so that I can help guide them through the rollercoaster of their teenage years.

Interests outside school:

My interests outside of school are: going to historical sites and places, coffee with friends, yoga, binge watching a Netflix series, and cosying up with a good book.

Biggest inspiration and why:

The first person that inspires me is Ayaan Hirsi Ali. She is known for her extensive work fighting for the rights of women. She inspires me because even though she faces extreme violence every day, she is not afraid to speak out about oppression.

The second person that inspires me is my Mom, Susan. She was a single mother who was completely dedicated to making sure that I was provided with whatever I needed to accomplish my very best.

One thing in the world I would change and why:

One thing in the world I would change would be to make more people empathetic.  I would also make it so that people realise that their voice matters.

30 seconds with…Wayne Smith

Position within school:

Senior IT Technician

Name 3 things that are great about your job:

  1. Friendly Staff / Students
  2. Diversity of Challenges on a Day to Day Basis
  3. Walking in to the smiling faces of the Canteen Staff always make me feel better for the rest of the day.

Interests outside school:

  • Motor Sport
  • Reading
  • Movies

Biggest inspiration and why:

Lewis Hamilton he just keeps on trying to be the best he can be.

One thing in the world would change and why:

Take away all Social & Economic Differences.

Whatever the differences between people we should learn to live in harmony with each other. It shouldn’t matter if anyone is different to you, you should respect them the way you would like to be respected.
