Bio

With over 15 years of experience working across Cornwall and Plymouth, Miss. Rowe is a dedicated and passionate Early Years teacher and leader. Her career has been rooted in a deep commitment to early childhood development, where she thrives on creating nurturing and stimulating environments that foster curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.

Miss. Rowe has a particular passion for phonics and the development of early reading skills. She takes pride in helping young learners take their first steps into literacy, using engaging, child-centered approaches that inspire enthusiasm for reading from the very beginning, supported by the phonics programme RWI. Her belief in the power of storytelling and language helps children build strong foundations that support both their academic growth and personal development.

Outside of school, Miss. Rowe enjoys walking her dog, Alfie, exploring new places on holiday, and spending quality time with her two-year-old daughter—playing, learning, and seeing the world through her eyes.

Why Ford?

I'm inspired by the school’s focus on providing high-quality early learning experiences that support every child to achieve their full potential from the very beginning. I'm proud to be part of a team that values curiosity, play-based learning, and early literacy. 

What am I reading?

I currently am reading Interacting or Interfering? Improving Interactions in the Early Years by Julie Fisher and working alongside my team to put this into practice in our classroom environment.

What am I researching?

As part of my ongoing professional development I am currently researching to continuous provision in Year 1 and developing this in practice at Ford.
