Your East Anglia Education Officer

Jemma Cuthbert

Jemma has been a primary school teacher for 14 years and worked in environmental education for 6 years prior to that. She has a degree in Ecology and a lifelong interest in the natural world.

She says: “I love seeing children enthused about the living things they find when exploring outdoors. That sense of wonder and curiosity is magical!  I firmly believe that encouraging widespread learning about the species and habitats we share the world with is vital to conserving them and managing them wisely. As an experienced teacher, I also know that learning outdoors benefits children directly, with great potential to boost interest, enjoyment and self-esteem.”
