Mr J Close
BackDeputy Headteacher
I am extremely proud and privileged to be Deputy Headteacher at Sedgefield Hardwick. Serving this welcoming and supportive community is something I could have only hoped for when I began teaching in 2009. I have spent much of my career supporting pupils in their most formative years and I am now delighted to be extending my support to pupils across the whole primary phase.
I remain passionate about Early Years education and I am wholly committed to making the greatest impact on the lives of pupils and families, as early as possible. However, I also believe that learning is lifelong, multidimensional and best achieved in a positive, consistent, empathetic and inclusive environment. I will always steadfastly stand for the above and I will continue to support the ambition of Sedgefield Hardwick to support all pupils and staff to flourish.
