Please meet Mrs Rudolph, our Library Manager.
We asked her 3 questions;
 
1. How did you become the Enfield Grammar School’s Library Manager?
I started my Career in Banking and left when I started a family. I wanted a job which fit in with the school run and applied for a part time job at Enfield Grammar School in Reprographics (photocopying). The role also required that I supervised the library when the librarian took a lunch break and also to support her in the library when the pupils had lunch. I particularly enjoyed the library and began to learn and take on more responsibility.
The extra effort to learn and give a bit extra, helped me to be in a good position to apply for Library Manager when our Librarian retired. The rest is history!
 
2. What do you enjoy the most about your job?
Making a difference. Watching boys develop an enjoyment of a book we are reading and making progress with their reading. I enjoy providing a safe space of calm and quiet, having fun lessons, running events and organising/ meeting authors and illustrators. I am really looking forward to our second Poetry Slam taking place in the first week of October!
 
3. What inspires you?
The boys themselves. Our school motto is ‘As Much As I Can’. Having worked outside of education, I understand how important it is for pupils to be confident in expressing themselves and communicate well. Having the opportunities to practice reading, writing and public speaking, gives them good skills for life.
The boy’s sense of humour also keeps me going!
