Amanda Sharp
Head Sixth Form
Degree: BEd Business Education
Previous Experience: Worked in a bank in a Gap year.
Greatest Achievement at JWS: Taking students to see Michelle Obama on her book tour in London after we secured tickets with our Speakers 4 Schools contact. The activity week we did last July was brilliant giving students a week of fun, interesting and inspiring activities which included a cultural trip to Nottingham, yoga, healthy relationship workshops and mock job interviews. Results day is a brilliant day where we see students who have worked so hard move on to exciting degrees and jobs.
Hobbies: I love tap dancing, yoga and anything to do with psychology. |I also love going to the cinema but would never watch a horror!
Obstacles I have overcome: I never thought I could run but I started running (well jogging) a few years ago and I really enjoy the time outdoors.
Favourite Music: My first concert I ever went to was Wham! and my last concert was UB40 so you could say I have an eclectic taste!
Favourite Movies: Dirty Dancing, Forest Gump and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

Degree: BA Hons Literature, University of Hertfordshire
Previous Schools taught at: Oxted School, Surrey; Heathland School, Hounslow; Cockshut Hill, Yardley; Ninestiles School, Acocks Green
Best part of my day at JWS: Definitely the mornings! I really enjoy welcoming the students and chatting to them about what they are up to before the day starts. I also smile a lot on bus duty. Even in the rain… it is another chance to speak to the students about their day before waving them off.
Other educational interests: I write a monthly column for The Times Educational Supplement; I work for an PiXL, writing resources for their 2000+ schools to use to improve teaching and learning and delivering training to English teachers from across the country on promoting progress of their students.
Hobbies: I read a lot, mainly fiction and love recommending some of my favourite novels to students I teach. I also love the cinema and go often, I have no preference of genre, as long as it isn’t a horror I’ll watch it. I am working on a novel… one day I may even finish it! Lastly, I have a real passion for quirky and vintage fashion and take real pleasure in experimenting with fashion!
Favourite Music: My ipod has a real mix: Pink; Musical Theatre; Queen; Madonna; Film Soundtracks; Lizzo? My first concert was Suede at Brighton Pavillions but my favourite band are The Red Hot Chilli Peppers who I have seen a few times
