Our Staff
Welcome from all the staff at Spellbrook
Teaching Team
Mr J Fisher BEd (HONS) NPQH
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 and the super children.
Mrs S Cook BA (Hons) SD
Deputy Headteacher, Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead & Staff Governor
Diamond Class teacher
This is my third year at Spellbrook, having taught previously in other local primaries, and I currently teach Year 5 and 6. I am also the Deputy Headteacher working alongside a great team and with great children. I lead English, French and music subjects, am a KS2 writing moderator for Hertfordshire and the Reading Leader for phonics. I am passionate about reading and developing a culture in school where children learn to read fluently and for pleasure.
Mrs V Todd BA (Hons)
Emerald Class Teacher
I am delighted to be teaching in Emerald class as maternity cover this year. I have worked in Key Stage 2 at two other local primary schools and particularly enjoy teaching Years 3 and 4. It is wonderful to be able to support the children during this stage of their learning journey, and to encourage their growing confidence and curiosity, as they transition into KS2. I am really looking forward to working with the children and being part of the Spellbrook team.
Mrs C Smith BA (Hons) NASENCo
Sapphire Class Teacher/ SENCo
I am thrilled to be teaching in Sapphire Class again this year. At university, I studied drama and before teaching I worked for a youth musical theatre company, directing and choreographing productions around Hertfordshire. I gained qualified teacher status in 2015 where I taught at Spellbrook as one of my teaching placements. I then taught locally in KS2 and was delighted when an opportunity to teach in KS1 at Spellbrook arose. I have lead Maths and D&T across the school over the last two years and am looking forward to stepping into the role of SENCO this year as well.
Mrs K Le Duc BSc (Hons)
Ruby Class teacher (Part-time)
I’ve been teaching in Primary School now for nearly 2 decades. I qualified in Early Years and even though I’ve taught in all Primary Stages, it is still my favourite phase. The journey of our youngest pupils, starting off in education, is a privilege to be part of. I am really glad to be part of the Spellbrook team and especially teaching in EYFS. I was lucky enough to come to the school covering for a maternity leave and am excited to continue my journey here. Spellbrook in such a friendly, warm and welcoming place with a great family feel.
Miss J Green BA (Hons) PGCE
Ruby Class teacher (Part-time)
I have been teaching for over nine 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.
