Mrs A Albentosa

I would like to introduce myself as the acting year manager for year 7. I work on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, whilst Mrs Etherington takes her maternity leave.

I have worked at Abbey Grange as a teaching assistant for 5 years, following a long career break to care for my 3 children. Before that I had varied work experience in social services, primary schools and in advocacy work for Save the Children and NCH Action for Children. 

I’ve always had a strong drive to improve the mental health of young people and have trained in Youth Mental Health First Aid and am a qualified Mindfulness in Schools teacher for students aged 11-18.

In my free time I love yoga and walking for exercise and making jewellery to exercise my creative side.
