Meet the Friezland Teaching Staff

Reception Teacher

Mrs. C. Butterworth

I have been teaching at Friezland for 18 years after completing a Geology degree and a PGCE in Early Years.    As well as teaching my other roles in school are Science, Design and Technology, Geography and History, Forest Fun and Early Years Co-ordinator.   These are areas of particular interest to me and I enjoy the opportunity to further develop my skills within these subjects throughout school.

I am married with 1 child and live in Shaw with our cat called Molly.   I enjoy playing the violin, reading, paddling in the sea (if its warm) and cross stitching!

 

Class 2 Teacher

Mrs. G. Wilson

I came to Friezland as a supply teacher in September 2015 and enjoyed it that much I am still here. Now I teach Years 1 and 2, and I am the subject coordinator for Music, RE, Collective Worship, Eco and Healthy Schools. I began my career as a Music specialist teaching in secondary schools and play the trumpet, piano and cello. I have two grown up children and have a dog called Bailey. In my spare time, I like to read, listen to music and see my friends and family.

I joined Friezland in 2016 after working as a teacher in London since 2007. I have worked across Key Stages 1 and 2 and co-ordinated many subjects including Maths and Science. I currently teach Year 5 and 6 and, alongside my responsibilities as Assistant Headteacher, I co-ordinate English, Computing and MFL, and am a Staff Governor. Having been a Friezland pupil myself, I feel proud to be a member of the Friezland family. In my spare time, I enjoy playing sports and like to travel around Europe to visit friends and family.
