I’m Abbie Rippon and I have been working here at Priestley for fifteen years. Previously I worked in the theatre industry including a range of youth projects across the Northwest. My teaching position is as the acting tutor on the vocational Musical Theatre course. As a personal tutor my role is a supportive one. I am the first port of call with regards to the welfare and wellbeing of my tutees, sharing their highs and lows, celebrating their strengths, and supporting them in the areas where they need support. I believe in the importance of communication and am that first point of contact should you need to discuss your child or their progress here at college.
