Amy Melia

My name is Amy Melia, this year will be my first year as a secondary teacher at GEMS Metropole. My specialism is Physical Education (PE) and I am looking forward to meeting everyone in the Metropole community. I completed my undergraduate degree of PE and Sports Pedagogy at Manchester Metropolitan University in 2014 and completed my post-graduate certificate in Education at Sheffield Hallam University in 2018. 

I have 5 years teaching experience in secondary PE and I have taught in a range of schools in the UK. For the past two years, I have also supported students pastorally as Head of Year 10 and 11 whilst completing their GCSE’s. 

I have gained experience in safeguarding, behaviour, teaching and learning and enrichment. I have organised enriching opportunities to encourage students to broaden their horizons and challenge themselves outside of the school curriculum. 

In my spare time, I love to travel and experience different cultures and cuisines. I have travelled around lots of places in Europe and I am looking forward to visiting more countries in and around the UAE. 

I am very passionate about students leading healthy, active lifestyles and will always try to instill a thirst for being happy and active.
