Mrs E. Kent Headteacher

I have been working in the teaching profession for over 20 years now and I still love my job very much. I have been Headteacher for 7 years and I have a happy, strong and committed team of people along side me, working hard every day to achieve the best they can.   As our school has grown so has the team.  It has grown from under 20 to over 30 staff in this time! 

I have my own family and love to be with them.  I spend lots of time being 'Mum's Taxi'.  I enjoy the outdoors whether I am out walking, on my bike or gardening.

Mrs K. Stringer Lead Teacher for Literacy and Year 5 Class Teacher

"Hello, I am Mrs Stringer, senior teacher and class 5 teacher. I am subject leader of Literacy and Religious Education. I enjoy using philosophy for children and thinking skills in my classroom. I am passionate about every child achieving their full potential. I believe that we continue to learn throughout our lifetime and so I am currently studying for my Masters degree in my free time.

I personally enjoy reading, poetry, art, maths puzzles, music, swimming, canoeing and collecting. As most of my past pupils know, I collect almost everything and anything, so it is best not to stand too long in one place in case I snap you up and add you to one of my collections!

Should you ever wish to discuss anything, I will always try to make time for you."

Mrs S. Craig Year 3 Class Teacher

"Hello, my name is Sue Craig and I am the Class 3 teacher, I have been teaching for 6 years, with St. George’s being my first teaching post.  I love working here, especially in Year 3, as this seems to be the age when children suddenly start to mature and develop in many different ways. Becoming a junior is a really big step for them and I love helping them through this transition period. I have the privilege of working with an amazing team here. We all work so well together and that includes the children. I am subject leader for History and Gifted and Talented (we love a challenge here).  I also run the School Council with the help of Karen Sturgeon (Year 1 Teacher) and I help to run the after school Drama Club of which I am very proud.  I have four gorgeous girls who keep me on my toes, however I enjoy dancing, socialising, horse riding and reading (when I can)."
