Profile:

I have worked at Rugby Free Secondary school for over 4 years. I have been faculty leader for Humanities and I am currently History Subject Lead and the ITT and ECT Lead. My project is looking at the issues surrounding Boys Achievement and in particular the role of Peer Pressure in the engagement / attainment of our male students.
