    H. Roe

    Hi, I am Mrs Roe and I joined Team NBCS in 2024. I have been a teacher for almost 14 years and have loved working in different schools across Leeds.

    I have been the subject leaders for many subjects within school such as Maths, Science, History and Geography. As part of my role here at NBCS, I get to design and create an exciting and meaningful curriculum across school and I am looking forward to seeing how it develops over the next few years.

    Outside of school, I love spending time with my family. I have 2 daughters who love to keep me busy!

    K. Murphy

    Hi, I'm Mrs Murphy.

    I have been a teacher for over 10 years now and have taught within schools across Leeds and Kirklees. I am completing my first year at New Bewerley, where I have been welcomed with open arms! I am thoroughly enjoying getting to know your children, our wonderful staff and great community. As the Senior Assistant Head within school, I am lucky enough to support in shaping the school and leading on a range of initiatives, such as Attendance.

    Away from school, I enjoy spending time with my family. I have two sons, who love football. I spend a lot of my time at football matches and galas! If I'm not there, you can usually catch us at a zoo, or soft play. I also enjoy watching films, reading and going to the theatre!

    Class Teacher

    J. Bramley

    Hi! I'm Miss Bramley. You can find me at the beginning of the week in Reception Class, where I am a class teacher. I have been teaching for nearly 14 years now and love my job. I have worked in a few different schools and many different year groups during my career, and enjoy teaching everything (but secretly enjoy teaching writing and art the most!).

    In my spare time I love drawing and painting, baking, listening to music and spending quality time with my 2 year old son. We enjoy going on adventures and finding new places to explore, especially in the sunshine.

  • B. Milligan
    Class Teacher & MFL Leader

    B. Milligan

    Hi, I'm Mrs Milligan - I have been teaching at New Bewerley since I started my teaching career 8 years ago and can honestly say there is nowhere I'd rather teach. I have always wanted to teach, and I am still enjoying it just as much as when I first started. Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my husband and my two little boys. We love going for walks and finding rope swings in the forest! When I get a bit of quiet time for myself, I love to watch films, bake brownies & listen to musicals.

    Hi, I'm Mrs Hamilton.

    I have been a teacher for over 10 years and have taught within schools across Leeds. I have been at New Bewerley for nearly 2 years and it is a wonderful place to teach.

    I teach in the Rainbow Room (Resource Provision) and am very passionate about teaching children with special educational needs and disabilities. As well as teaching in the Rainbow Room, I am also PE Leader for the school, which is great because it has always been my favourite subject!

  • L. Goodman
    Class Teacher & English Leader

    L. Goodman

    Hi!

    I’m Mrs Goodman. I have been a teacher for about 24 years and started my teaching career working at a lovely little school called Greenwood Primary. That school was knocked down and a new school was built in its place, the school we all know and love as New Bewerley. I love working here, I have met so many fantastic families and brilliant children and I am proud to be part of their lives. As I love the school so much, I even brought my own children here. I honestly would not have wanted them to be taught anywhere else.

    Away from school, I love spending time with my family. My two children (and husband) keep me busy, even though they are grown up. I love being outside when it is sunny or curled up on the sofa when it’s not, usually with a book in my hand. If I’m not reading , I enjoy cooking or watching cookery programmes or quizzes on TV.

    Hi I'm Miss Catterill. I have been teaching at New Bewerley for over 8 years and it is a wonderful place to teach. I am very passionate about teaching and really enjoying helping others to reach their goals. Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my three daughters. We love to go on long hikes and cooking exotic recipes together. I also enjoy spending time with my four sisters, we often go on trips to the cinema and bowling.

    J. Duxbury

    Hi, I'm Mr Duxbury and I am very excited to be joining the New Bewerley community as my first teaching role. I have wanted to be a teacher for a very long time, and I am very happy to be fulfilling my ambition here. When I'm not in school I like to relax by watching football or playing ice hockey.

  • S. Balmforth
    Class Teacher

    S. Balmforth

    Hi, I'm Miss Balmforth

    I started working at New Bewerley Community School as an LSA and welcomed the opportunity to complete my Newly Qualified Teacher year and become a fully qualified teacher. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching here over the past 5 years and supporting children achieve their aspirations. I am currently the Design and Technology Lead and next academic year I will be leading phonics too - I am very excited about this. I particularly enjoy teaching phonics and reading and I work across school.

    When I am not at work, I enjoy reading, swimming and spending time with my friends and family.

  • J. Smallman
    Class Teacher

    J. Smallman

    Hello! I’m Mr Smallman – I’ve been a teacher for 14 years and have just finished my first year at New Bewerley. I love the diverse mix of children and staff at this school and everyone has made me feel very welcome. As well as teaching in class, I am also Maths Leader for the school which is great because it just happens to be my favourite subject (along with Computing!) In my spare time I like to socialise with my friends and play rugby, though I tend to stick to Touch Rugby these days to avoid injuries. I also love to spend time with my two cats, Kenny and Cloud, who are very cheeky but very loveable.

  • L. Ward
    Class Teacher

    L. Ward

    Hello, I'm Miss Ward and I have taught at New Bewerley for over 14 years - most of my teaching career since qualifying. I love teaching at New Bewerley (especially Year 6) because our school has such a diverse community, with children from so many different backgrounds and countries and nearly every continent in the world. I am currently the Science Lead in school and also enjoy organising our very popular school Carnival in July each year.

    When I'm not working, I have 2 sons who are football mad so I spend a lot of my time at their training or matches, supporting them. We also love family adventures and I run my own Facebook page with ideas for Places to Go and Things to Do #KidsLeeds. We enjoy trips to the seaside, nice walks and spending time with our family. We also have a Dachshund - sausage dog - called Buddy who is very cute and cuddly and lots of fun.

In my spare time, I enjoy exploring different places with my son, supporting his interests and partaking in adventurous outdoor activities.
