Daily Mile Network NI

Many congratulations Clare… you have and will continue to make a huge impact on children’s lives and the wider community. Thanks for all your daily mile support and our paths will continue to cross.

Dear Parents and Carers,
I am writing to share some important personal news with you.
After much reflection, I will be leaving my post as Principal of St Teresa’s Nursery School to take up a new role with the Education and Training Inspectorate as a Primary and Early Years SEN Inspector.
Serving as Principal of St Teresa’s has been one of the greatest privileges of my career. It has been an honour to work alongside such dedicated staff, supportive families, and, most importantly, the wonderful children who bring so much joy, curiosity and energy to our school each day.
I am incredibly proud of all that we have achieved together as a school community. From our strong focus on play-based learning and inclusion, to the partnerships we have built with families and the wider community, St Teresa’s holds a very special place in my heart.
While I am excited about this next step and the opportunity to contribute to early years education at a system level, leaving such a special community is not easy. I will carry with me many fond memories of my time here.
Please be assured that the school will continue to provide high-quality care, learning and support for all children. Arrangements for leadership moving forward will be communicated in due course.
Thank you for your continued support, kindness, and trust during my time as Principal. It has truly been a privilege to be part of your children’s early learning journeys.
With warmest wishes,
Clare Evans�Principal�St Teresa’s Nursery School
