St. Brigid’s School is particularly proud of student Emily Johnson, who has overcome great adversity throughout her school career, with extremely severe treatment-resistive Epilepsy, facing tens of seizures a day and multiple brain surgeries, and who has managed to overcome the odds to achieve the qualifications she needs to secure a role as a Teaching Assistant in a Denbighshire school. She is working alongside the support of Working Denbighshire to use this role to train to become a teacher in the future.
