About Karen

PGCE Early Years

​

SENDCO, Safeguarding Officer as part of Safeguarding Team and First Aider

​

I have worked at Pavilion since April 2013 and was previously a volunteer. I have two boys who both attended Pavilion. As a parent and as an employee I have an insight into how valuable Pavilion is to the local community.

​

I worked for ten years in an Infant School in Norris Green, working from EYFS to Y2 and was also the SENDCo there in the year before I had my children. Since then, I have been looking after my family and have been involved in a voluntary capacity in preschools, primary schools, special schools and in riding for the disabled. Whilst living in Oxfordshire I was employed as a teaching assistant supporting a child with additional needs before moving back to Liverpool in 2012 and joining Pavilion as a volunteer.

​

I have thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to use the skills that I have acquired over the years and in several settings to help the preschool children to grow, learn and have a lot of fun together.
