Michelle and Lea teach a Cycle 3 class. Lea takes the class on Mondays and Tuesdays and Michelle teaches from Wednesday to Friday. Teresa is a classroom assistant in their class. Her primary role is to provide extra support to allow Michelle and Lea to work with children in small groups and meet their individual needs.
Our Cycle 3 teachers work closely together to plan and implement the curriculum and ensure that the children’s experiences are consistent in both classes. Our Cycle 3 classes are multi-age, allowing each child the opportunity to learn from others and the flexibility to develop, both socially and intellectually, at their own pace. Children usually stay with the same teacher for three years, developing strong teacher-student relationships and a deep understanding by the teacher of individual student needs and abilities.
We look forward to working with you this year.
