Continuing on with our #WeAreKingswood series, we spoke to Jake Whitby who will be joining the Prep School as a new Year 5 teacher this September.
Why do you love teaching?
Every day is different and there is fun and happiness to be had everywhere! I love being in an environment where everyone is always learning (children and adults) and getting to see children become more confident in who they are.
Tell us about your hobbies...
I love all sport, particularly rugby and netball. I enjoy anything outdoorsy and have a real passion for travelling.
If you couldn't be a teacher, what would you be?
A Formula 1 mechanic!
A few quick-fire questions...
Favourite food? You can't beat a family Sunday roast.
Favourite children's book? A Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Little Mix or Take That? Take That.
Coffee or Tea? Coffee during the week, tea on the weekends.
Finally, what are you most looking forward to about joining KPS?
The range of activities, the love of outdoors that KPS encourages and getting to know all the children and staff.
