Tracy-Ann Hall – Jamaica
Tracy-Ann went through her own school years with undiagnosed dyslexia. She left school to train as an automotive technician. Training other mechanics gave her a lifelong love of teaching. She enrolled at the vocational teachers’ college in Jamaica and after three years graduated top of her class. In her first teaching role she took a group of boys who had been written off educationally. Tracy-Ann transformed their performance and ambitions. One went on to become head boy, others joined the school choir. She also started and oversaw a programme for her class to feed street people, launch a junior automotive club and work on the school magazine. If she were to win the prize, she would buy resources for her school and the auto club she runs, as well as supporting various local families and children’s charities.
