My name is Phillippa. I have been a primary school teacher for nearly 13 years.  

Throughout my 13 years of teaching, children’s wellbeing, safeguarding, and learning is at the heart of everything I do. As a classroom teacher, I believe every child can be an effective learner. It is up to us to find the spark that ignites learning, and this is something I have worked hard on in all schools I have worked in. 

I have such a huge love for children and making sure they get the best start in life and this is what I believe Phonics Bear does.   

Having had a tough 2 years with the COVID pandemic, my partner being poorly with COVID, my dad passing away and having my little girl, I have learnt what is important in life and that is family. As a teacher, I believe that Phonics bears helps develop speech and language, which is currently so important due to the lack of interaction and experience with the Covid lockdowns.  In addition, it develops early literacy skills to create a confident learner, giving them a head start for school.
