Learning Mentor
Hi, my name is Gemma Plevin. I am a Learning Mentor. I have worked with children for over 5 years, starting off in private nursery and furthering my career along the way. I have a large family myself and there is nothing more rewarding in helping others where needed, encouraging them to shine. Having a busy life, I like to have a routine, keeping everything ticking over. I enjoy walks and family time making lots of memories.
Learning Mentor & Outdoor Lead
Hello, my name is Declan Coxon and I am a Learning Mentor at Cornerstone Academy. This is my first step to working in the education sector after graduating from University. I thoroughly enjoy being able to help and support the students in a classroom environment. I love to stretch and challenge the students through the use of PE, allowing the students to develop their social, emotional, physical and cognitive skills. Outside of work, I try to take part in as much sport as I possibly can, as it has been a love and passion of mine since a very early age. I also enjoy travelling with my partner and seeing the many places our world has to offer, spending time with my family and looking after my young nephew.
