Science Lead -Mrs Bennett

My name is Mrs Bennett and I am currently teaching one of the year 4 classes in St Anne Stanley. I qualified from John Moores University in 2004 with a BA (Hons) degree with qualified teacher status. I have taught in quite a few primary schools across Liverpool but it’s here at St Anne Stanley that I feel most at home and happy. I joined our ‘St Anne family’ 15 years ago now and I couldn’t imagine working with a better team of people, both children and adults. Teaching is my passion! There is no other career in the world that is as interesting and exciting than that of a teacher.

I am married with two children and one dog! I love to read and my favourite book is ‘The Butterfly Lion’ by Michael Murpurgo. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends and my favourite food is Pizza.

I have currently taken up the role of Science lead in our school. I was extremely pleased to get this role as Science is one of my favourite subjects and has any links with PSHE which I also lead. Science education is an important part of all pupils’ education as it is through this subject that we teach important life skills and help pupils to become more confident members of society who can contribute positively to the wider world. My role is to manage resources, support science curriculum development, monitor teaching quality and pupil achievement, and lead staff meetings to share ideas and skills.

It is our intent to encourage children to be inquisitive about the world, nurturing their innate curiosity and enabling them to develop a range of scientific skills that are useful across the whole curriculum. At its core, the science curriculum prioritises pupils’ comprehension and application of scientific concepts, so they can use them to make sense of the modern world.

If you have any queries about Science at St. Anne’s please do not hesitate to contact me via the school office and I will be more than happy to meet with you.

Many Thanks,

Mrs Bennett
