Rosie Soul

I am an experienced educator with 8 years of teaching experience in primary schools in the UK and abroad. I have a particular interest in curriculum design that engages children's natural curiosity, capitalises on modern neuroscientific theory of learning and remains socially and environmentally conscious. My most exciting achievement to date is designing a bespoke curriculum for my school, alongside monitoring, evaluating and adjusting this curriculum once it had been rolled out.

I am looking for a new role to explore my passion for curriculum design further. To help educate the next generation in how to care for each other and our planet.
