A few months ago Nigel put himself forward for an intensive DBS check (Disclosure & Barring Service) check and had his references gone through with a fine nit comb to ensure that he is a person of good and trustworthy character, impeccable perigee, with no nefarious ways or skeletons in his cupboard. It goes without saying that he passed with flying colours ……..
……. and has now become a fully fledged “Helping Hand” at I and B’s school. He’d wanted to do this ages ago but sadly Covid got in the way. So getting his letter inviting him to go in for a short training session this morning, before his actual duties commence was, to say the least, EXTREMLEY EMOTIONAL, there were tears!
The little fella was unbelievably nervous for someone normally so bold, but he put his best foot forward and managed to get himself digitally signed in and badged up ready to embrace this new venture.
Once inside he managed to relax and take everything he was told in, the most exciting part was finding out, with a drum roll on the desk, that he had been assigned to work with Year 2 and that in the next day or two he would be contacted again, this time by his allocated team leader, who would then see what days he was be available to help and what he might be doing, I think he might burst before them!
And Darrell and I? We are so proud ……………

Well done Nigel! I'm sure that you will do a fantastic job, and year 2 will really take to you.
Yeah-well done Nigel. I’m sure he’ll be excellent in his new role.

WoW - how brilliant - lots of fun and excitement to be had for sure. Year two are very lucky to have him there! JantheFan x
Oh well done Nigel! I worked with year 2’s for many years as a Teaching Assistant and they were my most favourite year 🥰
Yorkshire Karen - I once went down on one knee, and proposed to a teaching assistant, in the middle of another teacher's lesson. Didn't I mum?
