Ms. Sushma Bavishi
Supervisor - Grade 8
Ms. Sushma Bavishi believes that every child has the potential to flourish when nurtured in the right environment. Guided by Alexander Den Heijer's words — "When a flower doesn't bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower" — she is known for the empathy and care she brings to every relationship with students, parents, and colleagues alike.
She holds a Master's in English Language and Literature, a CELTA from the University of Cambridge, an ESOL certification from Trinity College London, and is a qualified TELLAL Teacher Trainer and Quality Assurer for Professional Development workshops at school.
As the school's Reading Champion, she leads the Read Like a GEM initiative, nurturing a love of reading and championing articulate, confident communication — reminding students that in a world of quick texts and emojis, words chosen well carry real power.
A reflective practitioner and a steadfast advocate for student wellbeing and safeguarding, she leads her team by example — providing mentorship, training, and instructional support to strengthen inclusive classroom practices. As Supervisor of Grade 8, she also guides her team in preparing students for a smooth and confident transition to senior school.
