Hidden Heroes - Life Behind the Scenes.
For the next few weeks we'll be sharing a short video of a different member of staff to showcase the depth and diversity of their backgrounds, interesting facts and favourite moments. Plus, what led them to teach at the Prep!
Cassie Wood, our wonderful Reception Teacher!
Cassie graduated from Oxford Brookes University with a BEd with Maths in 1998. She began her teaching career in South West London, working at a number of inner city schools, teaching across all the primary age groups. With two young children in tow, Cassie moved with her family to Sherborne where she initially worked at Milborne Port Primary School as the Deputy Head before her career was rudely interrupted by the arrival of a further two children, twin boys! Four children made teaching full-time naturally challenging, however Cassie continued to teach at Trent Young's Primary School whilst also using her well-honed skills to provide private tutoring for children on a one-to-one basis. She joined Sherborne Prep in October 2020. When presented with a spare moment, Cassie enjoys running and keeping fit.
