Personal Profile
I am an experienced teacher having gained my secondary PGCE in 2003. Since this time I have worked in state secondary schools, with my current school having academy status. I have taught to a wide variety of students throughout KS3, 4 and 5. A significant part of this experience has been in various leadership roles, to include KS3 co-ordinator, Intervention co-ordinator, Head of Biology and currently Second in Science.

I always work with enthusiasm and I love working with young people from all backgrounds. I truly believe that every child deserves the opportunity to receive an excellent education and the chance to succeed

As well as my teaching skills I am extremely organised and have excellent IT skills. Students find me fair and I pride myself in being able to build a rapport with students from all backgrounds and of all abilities.

Outside the classroom I enjoy spending time with my family and I love the outdoors and travelling around the UK as well as abroad.
