Trainee Choice - Excellent Mentor Award

Congratulations to Louise Pomfret from Heyhouses Primary School, winner of our Trainee Choice Excellent Mentor Award.
What makes this award so special is that it is nominated by our trainees, and this year Louise was independently nominated by both of the trainees she mentored.

Alex shared:
"Louise has shown me the kind of teacher I want to become. She has given me the confidence to lead my own class while supporting me through every aspect of teaching."

Jacqui described Louise as:
"A mentor full of energy who inspires collaboration, high aspirations and a genuine love of learning. She models outstanding practice and always puts children and trainees in the best position to succeed."

Louise embodies everything great mentoring should be—professional, inspiring and supportive.

Last term Sydney taught Art at Marton Primary Academy in Blackpool.

A brilliant achievement for everyone.
