Amy Beadnell- Bevan is now in her second year as a Literacy Specialist at Jerry Clay English Hub.

For five years, she has worked as an English lead, with a passion for the development of phonics and reading within her school. Having worked extremely hard to raise the attainment and standards in her own school, she now relishes the opportunity to support other schools on their journey.
Floppy’s Phonics is the SSP she has been working with for seven years. She was instrumental in introducing the programme into her previous school five years ago after experiencing its success in the previous school I worked in.

Amy understands that every school’s journey is unique; hers has been far from easy. She therefore knows how tough it can be to make the necessary change and understands that with support you can overcome the obstacles in the way of your success. As well as being a key member of the delivery team, Amy is the Phonics & Reading Lead for a large trust in Wakefield.
