Eirini Chasomeri, Early Years Teacher, St George's School, Edinburgh

“Working in the early years is a truly fulfilling experience. The children’s boundless curiosity, creativity, and capacity for love never ceased to amaze me. Originally from Greece, I studied for my bachelor's degree in Educational and Social Policy at the University of Macedonia. I then moved to Edinburgh to complete an MSc in Inclusive and Special Education at the University of Edinburgh and in 2014 I joined St George’s Nursery as an Early Years Teacher. During my time here, I have introduced innovative approaches to teaching, planning and tracking each child’s progress which has proven to be milestones in the way children experience learning and development in our setting. I find immense joy in creating a safe and inclusive space where children can freely explore, discover, and express themselves. I wholeheartedly believe that St George’s Nursery provides a nurturing and stimulating environment that ignites the children’s love for learning and fosters their holistic development. Above all, it is my view that Early Years education sets the stage for children’s future academic success and equips them with the skills to thrive in an ever-changing world.”
