Profile:

I have 20 years teaching geography in schools in London and Warwickshire. I have also held a variety of different positions including, Head of Geography, Head of Faculty, Induction Tutor and Careers Lead. In my current role as Assistant Headteacher at The Avon Valley School I have responsibility for Teaching and Learning. I am committed to removing barriers that might affect the future of young people and have led a range of whole school projects to address this. My research project is to understand the link between self esteem and suspension rates as a result of school based interventions.
