Mrs Partridge

Hello everybody, my name is Mrs Partridge. Since joining Highwood I have taught in Year 6, and am now enjoying being part of the Year 4 team. Outside of teaching, you can find me reading a book, or spending time with my friends – I’m a massive extrovert! I love being creative, and I can’t wait to share my enthusiasm for Art with my class, and the rest of the school as I continue leading into Art!

Something that I am passionate about is ensuring that every child that steps into my classroom feels welcome and part of the community. My aim each year is to create a respectful space where everyone has the opportunity to grow and develop into a confident young person, ready to face secondary school and beyond.

Mrs Downes

Hello, I am Mrs Downes.

From the age of five, I told anyone who would listen that when I grew up I wanted to be the Prime Minister and a Teacher – so I’m halfway to fulfilling my childhood ambitions! I’ve had the pleasure of teaching children from Reception through to KS2 and am driven to make learning as natural and enjoyable as possible. For me, a day has been a success if the children go home tired from all the effort they have put in and looking forward to the next day at school. I’m a creative and practical person, so I like to spend my time drawing, writing, cooking and gardening – when I’m not running around after my family, that is!
