My name is Emma Penfold. I've had the pleasure of working at Cherry Tree School for seven years now, during which time I've grown tremendously in both experience and knowledge.

My journey has led me to my current role as Key Stage 2 leader, a position I'm truly passionate about. What sets our school apart, in my view, is the genuine kindness of my colleagues. The support we offer one another is not merely helpful—it's absolutely essential in the demanding world of education. This ethos of mutual care and collaboration is what makes Cherry Tree School such a rewarding place to work, fostering an environment where both staff and pupils can thrive. Our nurturing atmosphere empowers our children to dream big and achieve even bigger. It's a joy to witness their growth and success, knowing that our supportive environment plays a crucial role in their journey.
