Spellbrook C of E Primary School

Teaching Team

Mr J Fisher BEd (Hons) NPQH, NPQEL
Headteacher and Designated Safeguarding Lead

I have been in Primary Education for over 30 years and have taught and led in a whole range of schools, from very large to very small ones, from city schools to those in rural areas.

I joined Spellbrook in April 2020 and love working with this dedicated staff team, super children and supportive families.

Mrs K Rutt MA (Cantab) MEd, PGCE, NPQTD

Deputy Headteacher

I am excited to be joining Spellbrook this year and working with children across the school including teaching Sapphire on Fridays. I have experience in both Key Stage 1 and 2 and have a passion for leading Literacy as well as interests in Early Years and development through play. I look forward to getting to know you and your children over the coming years.

Mrs V Todd BA (Hons)

Diamond Class Teacher

After qualifying as a teacher in 2021, I worked in Key Stage 2 at two other local primary schools, before joining the Spellbrook teaching team two years ago.

I am delighted to be teaching Diamond class this year, as well as continuing to lead Art, Design & Technology and Music across the school.

I look forward to working with the children on this next stage of their learning journey.

Mrs R-G McDonald BSc (Hons)

Sapphire Class Teacher (4 days per week)

I am excited to be teaching Sapphire Class this year again this year. I was very lucky to undertake my teacher training at Spellbrook over 10 years ago before teaching at other local schools. I have taught across KS1 and KS2 but I am thrilled to be back teaching KS1 again. I particularly love teaching this age group as their emerging writing develops, and they start to build connections with the world around them.

Miss J Green BA (Hons) PGCE

Ruby Class teacher

I have been teaching for over ten years and have taught in both early years and KS1. I began my teaching career at Spellbrook Primary school as maternity cover and was eager to return after one year away.

My passion is based in early years education and using the outdoor environment to learn.

My favourite part of teaching is that every day is different and I love bringing lessons to life with investigations and props.

Mrs S Hasty

Higher Level Teaching Assistant for Ruby Class and Breakfast Club Supervisor

I have worked at Spellbrook for the past ten years. I am a trained and experienced early years practitioner. I am now working with reception which I am thoroughly enjoying. I can also be found running breakfast club five mornings a week.

My role at Spellbrook has opened up lots of different avenues from training in write dance, to sitting on the local safer travel team which promotes more sustainable travel to and from school.
