Essex Schools Success

Two separate schools in Essex have recognised exceptional performance by Monthind staff.

At Glebe School in Rayleigh, Head Teachers Monica Dimmock (Infant School) and Travis Martinson (Junior School) have gone out of their way to show their appreciaton of the work done by Caretaker Gary Harper. As a result, Gary has been presented with a special performance award by Monthind. “Nothing is too much trouble for Gary”, says Mrs Dimmock, “He will take on any job we give him and he goes far beyond the call of duty”.

At King John School in Benfleet, Bursar Katrina Bentley paid tribute to the outstanding job being done by Sylvia Kemp, Monthind’s On-Site Manager. Sylvia is in charge of the 14 cleaners who look after the 2000-pupil school complex. Says Mrs Bentley: “In the two and a half years Sylvia has been in charge of the contract, cleaning standards have got better and better. Her dedication and her customer service are second to none”.

Gary and Sylvia were awarded Certificates of Excellence by Penny Candler, Monthind’s Business Manager for Essex County Council.
