Jessica Ho is a teacher of English with experience working in both primary and secondary settings over the past 6 years. I aim to bridge the gap in learning between KS2 and KS3 to ensure a smooth transition to secondary school through the key stages.  I am really excited to be Head of Year 9 at Stone Lodge School. My vision for Year 9 is to shape and guide the students into being resilient and open-minded young people, who will go above and beyond, and even break barriers in order to excel in their future successes. I strive to inspire the students to aim for excellence, which will eventually encourage them to give back positively to our community. I endeavour for our Year 9 team, (both students and staff included) to work together as a family, and as a team to support our students to reach their full potential. I believe that every child deserves an equal opportunity for them to succeed, and I am passionate in supporting the students through their journey by setting them up as compassionate, respectful and honourable individuals at Stone Lodge School.
