I am Mrs Fenton, a Year 5 teacher here at Walton Priory Middle School.
Before becoming part of the ‘Walton Way of Life’, I was fortunate to teach in various locations in the UK and abroad. In 2013, I left my hometown of Stone to study for my Primary Teaching degree at Edge Hill University. While studying, I had the phenomenal opportunity to teach English in Thailand—a transformative experience that solidified my desire to become a teacher. In 2015, I travelled to New York, where I worked with children aged 9–14 years, further fuelling my passion for education and discovering a newfound love for peanut butter and jam sandwiches!
In 2016, I qualified as a teacher, achieving a lifelong dream. As a child, I would pretend to take the register with my teddies and teach them maths from a notepad—a true testament to making dreams happen! After graduating, I spent three years teaching Years 2 and 3 at a wonderful school on the outskirts of Liverpool.
I later returned to my hometown, met my husband, bought a house, and adopted Dennis, our cheeky cockapoo who loves ham and stealing socks.
In 2019, I began teaching at Walton Priory, working with Years 5 and 6. I am passionate about creating a learning environment where every child can achieve their full potential with the right support.
When I’m not teaching, I enjoy baking fancy cakes, running, working out, and spending time with Dennis, my family, and my beautiful daughter.
