Head of HeartSpace

 

Miss C Schofield

 

Before becoming Head of HeartSpace I worked as a primary school teacher in both the UK and overseas. During my own educational journey, I have gained three degrees – one in Child Psychology, one in Social Justice in Education and the third being my PGCE. Recently I have also gained my Level 5 Diploma in Trauma and Mental health and am now a Trauma Informed Practitioner. These qualifications help me to deliver bespoke trauma interventions and give me a good understanding of neuroscience of our students. I feel HeartSpace provides students with a foundation of skills for life that will set them up to become a well-rounded citizen. Our staff are supportive, caring and always put our students interests first.

I started my teaching journey as a primary school teacher and became the SENDCO for 2 years before making the move to Penistone. My time as a SENDCO allowed me to work closely with students with a variety of additional needs and allowed me to build relationships with different outside agencies that can help support students within school. As Assistant Head of HeartSpace, I continue to work closely with different agencies to ensure we have as much support as possible in place for our students. I truly believe HeartSpace is an exceptional place that supports our students to thrive in education and develop themselves as amazing individuals.
