Last night at London’s Guildhall, Kilgarth added a Gold Award to its three Silvers when Mrs Pullin won the prestigious title of UK Teaching Assistant of the Year. Mr Baker, Headteacher, and her colleagues were delighted and proud to be there to applaud as she graciously accepted the award from Dallas Campbell. Mrs Pullin has already won the hearts of everyone at Kilgarth, pupils and staff!
Mr Baker was also at the ceremony to represent the Kilgarth Outstanding Team of the Year, which was shortlisted for Gold. It is widely recognised by staff and governors that Mr Baker is the inspirational leader of this team! Ms Westlake was there too, having been shortlisted in the category of Outstanding New Teacher of the Year.
