Mrs Sandi Gascoigne

Having gained a B.ed Hons from St Martins Lancaster, Sandi taught in three primary schools across South Manchester for 15 years, during which time she was responsible for SEN and Safeguarding. She taught Year 6 for nine years, preparing the children for their 11+ examinations, and was a Deputy Head for six years.

Sandi moved to Southport in 2000 and bought Yarrow House Nursery with her husband, which they owned for 15 years, during which time they undertook huge expansions and a relocation, and achieved an Outstanding Ofsted in 2015, prior to selling the nursery to a chain of nurseries later in 2015. Whilst having the nursery, Sandi also studied and gained Early Years Professional Status specialising in Early Years, and formed an ongoing link with Edge Hill Teacher Training.

Since then Sandi enjoys part time supply teaching for Sefton in a variety of schools, still enjoying the primary school environment, and says she “is not ready to be a housewife just yet!”. Sandi brings with her previous experience of being both a Teacher Governor, and a Parent Governor. Sandi and her husband have two boys, both of whom attended Merchant Taylors’ Senior Boys’ School.

Another huge positive of the return to school site Another huge positive of the return to school sites last term was being able to conduct science experiments together once again.

During lockdown some of our pupils studied chemical and physical reactions in order to answer the question 'what makes fireworks explode?' 

After completing the theory aspect during online lessons, the return to school meant they could undertake the practical element together. 🎇
One of the best aspects of the return to school si One of the best aspects of the return to school sites last term was pupils participating in various sports once more during their PE lessons.

At MTGS, Year 7, 9 and 10 developed their athletics skills in the sunshine at Hall Road 🏃‍♀️ Year 8 enjoyed some competitive Tennis whilst Year 11 took part in games of Rounders. 🎾⚾
