Ryan Walsh

Teacher of PE and Group 3, Dunhurst

BA (Hons) Primary Education with QTS

What makes a good teacher at Dunhurst?
Patience, teamwork and a good sense of humour.

What are you trying to encourage and instil in the children?
I try to make my lessons as enjoyable as possible. I think the more fun the children are having, the more likely they are to learn and remember.

Apart from your teaching role, what else do you get involved with at the school?
I am heavily involved with sport, taking teams to matches and running clubs. I also try to help out backstage with Dunhurst drama productions.

In your opinion, what makes Dunhurst special?
I was not very good at music or drama at school, so it is always amazing to see the children perform so brilliantly in concerts and productions. The Dunnie Awards is my favourite event of the school year.

Who or what inspires you?
My family, friends and two books; The Life of Pi and The Alchemist.

Tell us something not a lot of people know about you.
It has been my New Year’s Resolution to stop biting my nails every year for the past 25 years.
