My name is Kerry-Ann Burgoyne and have been in the education field for sixteen years. I originally studied Social Sciences majoring in psychology and then completing my Masters with a first class honors in Health Development and Policy. I later undertook a Graduate diploma in Education and started my first teaching position in Tauranga. After teaching for nine years in Tauranga the opportunity arose for us to move to Matamata so my husband could expand his agricultural business. An RTLB position became available and I believed that this could be a fantastic opportunity to work with a range of ages, teaching personnel providing advice and guidance for students with learning and behaviour needs. I completed my Post Graduate Diploma in Special Needs Resource Teaching in 2010. I enjoy being part of a team and working with a wide range of professionals to improve learning and behaviour outcomes for students in our care.

I currently deliver the Incredible Years programme to teachers in the Cluster 14 area and have a number of cases in the Matamata area.

In my spare time I assist with the family business and occasionally we like to get away from it all in the camper."

I have been in the role of RTLB for Cluster 14 , based at Cambridge, for almost 2 years and I enjoy the challenges that this role brings. As a mother of two young busy boys , one with dyslexia and Irlen syndrome, I can understand the challenges of children who learn in different ways.

Tēnā koutou katoa
Since completing my teaching degree 9 years ago, I have been privileged to teach at a small country school just outside of Waharoa. During this time I have developed a special interest in accelerating learning for those children who face challenges and barriers with achievement. My own teaching practice has been influenced by the guidance and support I received from the services of RTLB, ensuring my students were supported to overcome difficulties.
Being passionate about children believing in themselves and being all that they can be, I feel honoured that I can now give support in a more specialised way. With this thinking, and consolidating what I have learnt as a classroom and specialist literacy teacher, I am very excited to have the opportunity to develop my own learning further.
I am very much looking forward to meeting, and collaborating with, the RTLB team at Cambridge, local schools within the cluster, and with those students and whānau that that are facing challenges.
