Sue Hughes

I have been Headteacher of Springfield Junior School, Swadlincote since September 2010, after 3 years as deputy Headteacher and SENCo at a large primary school in Burton.

I feel passionately that every child be viewed as an individual and that it is the role of staff in school to work creatively to overcome any barriers and build up positive relationships with children to become partners in the learning process. We are very proud of our inclusive philosophy and ethos at Springfield and the success we have achieved with this; something we will continue to build on as part of QEGSMAT.
