As a Headteacher with 40 years of educational experience, Jonathan has taught all subjects at primary level from Reception to Year 6 and been subject leader for Science, Mathematics, PE, RE, PSHE, as well as Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator.
Jonathan says:
In the last 16 years, I have performed Headteacher roles at The Archbishop of York’s CE Junior School, Bishopthorpe and more recently, at Naburn CE Primary School and Copmanthorpe Primary. I am currently teaching at a school in Leeds, having decided to move back to a non-leadership role. I am really looking forward to my role in providing one-to-one tuition.
There are many things that I enjoy doing outside school. I love sports and in particular, team sports. My favourite is cricket and I used to play regularly for Bolton Percy Cricket Club (near Tadcaster) where three generations of the my family has played/is still playing. I am a qualified cricket coach and get a tremendous amount of satisfaction talking ‘cricket’ to anyone who is prepared to listen to me!
I am also a football fan, supporting Sheffield Utd and have been a season ticket holder for a number of years… and yes, I have witnessed plenty of goals being scored against us last season!
Jonathan offers face-to-face lessons to students in the Leeds, Selby and York areas.
