Staff Governor

Janette is an English teacher here at Stalham High, having joined the English department in the summer term of 2023. As well as being a member of the teaching staff at Stalham, Janette also has a daughter at the school and lives in the local area. 

Before coming to Stalham High, Janette taught English at Caister Academy for 13 years. Prior to qualifying to teach, Janette studied English Literature and Creative Writing at UEA, followed by a masters degree, also in Creative Writing. After graduation, Janette worked in a number of support roles in schools, including as a Gifted & Talented Mentor and as a Learning Support Assistant in Norfolk schools.  This naturally led into a career in teaching, where she hopes to pass on her love of reading and creativity to others.
