Science teacher goes to top of the class
A PRIMARY school teacher has been recognised for her outstanding work in helping youngsters learn about science.
Louise Bousfield, who teaches Year Three pupils at Bradshaw Hall Primary School in Cheadle Hulme has won the Primary Science Teacher of the Year award.
She was presented with the accolade by Dr Martin Hollins of the Primary Science Trust at a special school assembly.
Mrs Bousfield received £1,000 and the school was awarded a further £500 to spend on science-related resources.
She said: “I was very, very honoured and proud but I couldn’t have done it without the support of the school, my colleagues and the headteacher.
“I like to provide memorable experiences for children; for example we went to a farm when we were looking at the food chain. “I am quite creative I suppose. I love my job, I enjoy it because every day is different. “I get to work with very excited young people , it’s a fun job, it’s excellent.”
