About Your Teacher
Mr Groom
After completing my teacher training in the city of York, I am proud to say that I have been teaching at Michael Drayton Junior School for 12 years now.
In school, I am in charge of Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar (SPaG) and English is one of my favourite subjects alongside History. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family and reading stories to my two young twin daughters. I am also a keen gardener, like penguins and enjoy going to watch Leicester City play, my hometown football team. I pride myself on having high expectations, a tidy, organised classroom and in embedding a mutual feeling of respect.
As your teacher, I want the best for each and every one of my pupils. I am committed to supporting them and providing them with the tools and knowledge to succeed and reach their full potential. During their time in 6AG, I look forward to getting to know them all better, not just academically, but as an all-round person. I hope that together we will have both an enjoyable and memorable year.
