About Your Teacher
Mr. Reardon
Hello, I am James Reardon and I am a teacher and Team Leader working in Year 6. As if part of the furniture now, I have worked at Michael Drayton Junior School for nearly twenty years yet I am still as enthusiastic about children's learning as when I started.
My favourite subject to teach is Literacy which is why I enjoy my role as English Subject Leader so much. My main achievement in this role has been to popularise the reading of graphic novels in school so the stories I read can be enjoyed as much by me as by readers of all abilities.
Outside of school, and despite my advancing age, I enjoy rock climbing, running and walking in the mountains. It is my long-held ambition to travel to the Himalayas to see awesomeness of Mount Everest with my own eyes.
