Zofia Leszczynska

My early years were spent in a British settlement camp outside Crewe in Cheshire. I began my full time education at the age of twelve (after the camp was disbanded) in Ludford St, girls secondary school in Crewe. I transferred to a girls grammar school when I was sixteen, then I completed a teacher training course in Alsager in 1966. I worked as a class teacher and teaching deputy headteacher in the Manchester area until I retired in 2004. In the late nineties as the head of a Polish Saturday school I was also an examiner in Polish speaking O level examinations. The ideas for Billy Beetle books started while I was teaching, however as education is a time consuming profession I was not able to concentrate on the development of these ideas until recently.
