Team Cherry Teaching Assistant

During that time, Mrs Shields led a range of support programmes. Mrs Shields then took the challenge of moving into KS1 where she delivers a range of programmes. Mrs Shields is passionate about improving outcomes for pupils in Team Cherry and supporting teaching and learning in a positive, caring and fun setting.
