‘Dallas has a lovely rapport with the pupils, who all respond positively to her teaching,’ the nominator said.
‘She is also a very well-liked member of staff and I have known her for a long time now and know how much hard work she puts into her teaching.’
Miss Courtenay-Warren was said to be very dedicated to her work, spending large amounts of time preparing for her lessons so that the pupils always receive ‘first-class projects and encouragement’.
‘She often works during school holidays and always makes sure [everything] is ready for the first day of school each term, particularly for September,’ the anonymous nominator added.
