Pupils, parents, teachers, caretakers, governors, prefects, nurses... our school communities involve so many different roles and people passionate about the part they play. Jo Malone spoke to some of them

I Love School

WHY I LOVE BEING A TEACHER

“Teaching children is the most rewarding, engaging and inspiring career. Watching the look in a child’s eyes as they discover a new mini-beast on a bug hunt or seeing their tongue sticking out in concentration as they work to correctly form the letters of their name for the first time, reminds me of what a crucial thing it is to develop a life-long love of learning from an early age.

“Working with children is great fun and you can treasure the moments of pure joy. Each day you leave the classroom after tidying away the pencils and working out which piece of work belongs to which child, knowing that you are making a real difference in a job that transforms lives.

“Children will always amaze and surprise you. So many ideas, questions and observations about the world around them. Each child is unique and bursting with possibilities for the future.”

WHY I LOVE BEING A LIBRARIAN

“Being a college librarian is about much more than issuing books to students. In a college like this you get to work directly with students. Throughout the year my library colleagues and I have been working one-to-one with supported learning students on their literacy. Seeing their progress gives you a real sense of achievement. We’ve also taken these students out to a local bookshop where they have chosen books for our library and then helped to promote them.

“You also get to work with some cool colleagues, because the people that come into libraries tend to be interested in contemporary fiction, the arts, theatre – they’re good people to work with.” - Chris Smith, City College Norwich.
