Kerry Park – Yorkshire

  • Regional Rep

I am a Key Stage Two Teacher, ITT & ECT Mentor at Beech Grove Primary School in Middlesbrough. I am passionate about children’s literature and using high-quality texts in the classroom. In our school, reading is at the heart of everything we do, and this motivates me to provide the best experiences and models for children.  

I have worked in schools and in Local Authorities, working on both school and curriculum development. Although my background is in Science and Computing, literacy has been a priority throughout my career, ensuring that pupils expand their understanding – and their imaginations! I am completely ‘bookish’ and love a good discussion about books and the opportunities that they present. I’m never far from a good book or my Kindle!  

It is such a joy to be able to join such a wonderful team of Regional Representatives for the UKLA, and I’m looking forward to broadening my knowledge of children’s literature and the ways in which we can support children’s literacy learning. 

If you would like to know more about the UKLA, and what we do, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
