Miss Dalson (Maternity Leave)

Early Years Class Teacher and joint Cultural Capital Co-ordinator

From a young age, I have always been passionate about teaching and learning, whether it was engaging in imaginative role-play with my siblings or assisting my cousins with their homework.  I pursued my passion for education at university and graduated with a BA Hons in Education Studies. I also hold a Level 3 qualification in Childcare, Learning, and Development.

My journey at Clowns began in 2013 when I joined the Manor House team. As joint Culture Capital Coordinator, I have continued to develop my passion for embedding a strong sense of self and understanding of others, within a classroom environment. I take a holistic approach to learning and work with each child, as an individual, to meet their unique needs, and work towards their holistic and academic targets.

I have very fond memories of my time at school, many of which are rooted in the love, care, and encouragement I was shown by my teachers. This is something I strive to replicate with the children in my class.  Working in Early Years is very rewarding, and I look forward to working with your children and creating with them fond memories of their time at Clowns!
