She also works closely with Rachel’s Reception class to ensure consistency between the two classes. Jane is a classroom assistant in Karen’s class. Her primary role is to provide extra support to allow Karen to work with children in small groups and meet their individual needs.
Parents are usually able to quickly catch up with Karen at drop off or pick up time. However, if you require a more formal appointment, please arrange a mutually convenient time. Karen can be contacted by phoning the school or alternatively you may wish to email her.
