Hi, my name is Mr Johnston and I am Jackdaws’ teacher. I have taught at The Bawburgh School since graduating as a teacher in 2014. I love the place. The size allows everyone a chance to get to know each other and more importantly, help each other. The friendly attitude of everyone here makes teaching at Bawburgh a real joy. The setting is also amazing. Many is the time we’ve stopped a lesson to stare at a kestrel, heron or marsh harrier as it flies by.
I am a passionate teacher. There is nothing more satisfying than when working with children, you see that little smile when they finally grasp a problem they have been wrestling with. Further, they have the capacity to surprise you with their thinking and inventiveness and this invariably makes me grin and often think of things in a different light.
At home, I have two young children, William and Rosie and am married to Lucy. We live in the South of Norfolk and love the opportunity to go for walks or bike rides. I love my films, cycling, Lego (hence Lego Loki), coaching rugby and Beccles RUFC. So, all in all, it’s a rather busy but fun life.
Kind regards
