What exactly do you do? For three days a week I work at Knowsley Central Primary Support Centre, which caters for children with complex learning and behavioural difficulties. The other two days, I run my own business, which delivers dance and drama workshops for schools and teachers.
I am the music/performing arts manager at the support centre and a specialist learning support teacher in two local primary schools.
Describe a typical day. I take sessions at school in the morning with Years 1, 2 and 5. Then I drive to the centre and, after lunch, prepare to teach dance. Often I arrange performances by theatre groups, workshops and take the children on cultural visits.
