A SUPPLY teacher has been named the best in the North-East.
Anna Fronkova from Consett, in County Durham has been named the 2017 PK Education North East Supply Teacher of the Year.
She was on a shortlist of three for the award and won the title with 81 per cent of the public vote.
The teacher, who has also spent six years working in schools in the Czech Republic and Austria, said: “I felt very appreciated to have been nominated, then, to go on and win was something I didn’t expect.
“It really was a glorious surprise.
“I have four children, so teaching on a flexible contract is very important to me.
“Being a supply teacher really suits people like me who are inquisitive, flexible and don’t mind a challenge”.
