To David and Julie.
A memorable feisty lady who was instrumental in pushing the boundaries and expectations of all of her students. Also a great boss.
Known fondly by all that worked with her at both (previously known as ) The Katherine Elliot and The Robert Clive Special Care Schools) as "Whittaker."
I have more reason than most to thank her for support and efforts on behalf of my daughter Helen. Eileen taught her at Katherine Elliot and helped to ensure Helen moved into mainstream education, opening up the beginning of a successful life based on abilities not disabilities.
I also worked as a Nursery Nurse in Robert Clive Special Care when Whittaker was the Head of Unit.
I am so sorry for your loss,
Glenis Gwilliam
