Summer ESB News

“I have known Tina for many years, both as a teacher of ESB and as an assessor and have great respect for her. Over the years, I have learnt so much from Tina. She had a great gift for report writing and, on many occasions, I have turned to her reports to find the magic words or phrase needed for any grade. Always in control, in a firm but friendly way, Tina had a talent for drawing out the very best in candidates. Everyone I speak to, whether they be colleagues, teachers or indeed my own pupils who have been assessed by her, comment on her warm personality and say how lovely she is. Our founders wrote: “Assessors have the sensitivity to discern the presence of gifts in others and the skills to bring them to light” and Tina embodies this ESB spirit, which will live on in all those who have been inspired by her.” Roey Paige (ESB Assessor) says, "Tina is a bundle of energy, a tireless, glamorous assessor and colleague, who is always fun to be with”. Diana Lim (ESB Assessor) adds, “Number one must be Tina’s humour and story- telling which always brightened my day - and of course those leopard shoes!

So it is with love and thanks we say farewell to a much loved colleague but, as part of the ESB family we hope that she will stay in touch.
