An anonymous nominator said Sarah’s passion for teaching is evident as she engages so well with her pupils and helps them grow in confidence.

‘Her work with the students enables them to produce outstanding results,’ they said.

Ms O’Leary teaches maths at Blanchelande College and the nominator said that when their daughter had a complete mental block in the subject, Ms O’Leary was there to help.

‘[My daughter] had quite low self esteem but with compassion and gentle nurturing, Sarah has improved her understanding and therefore her outcomes dramatically.’

The nominator said it is very pleasing that their daughter now comes home saying maths is one of her favourite subjects.
