I began my teaching at Wisbech Grammar School in September 2006 taking on the role of Head of Geography, having previously taught Geography for eight years in state schools in Portsmouth and Essex.
A member of the Senior Team since 2017, my role as Assistant Head Teaching, Learning and Innovation encompasses leading whole school strategies such as integrating technology into our pupils’ learning journey and supporting staff with their delivery of teaching strategies based in research and cognitive science. These strategies are key to enable our pupils to develop their approach to independent learning and to become lifelong learners.
For the past seven years, I have been School’s Professional Tutor, primarily responsible for the induction of new staff and oversight for those undertaking Initial Teacher Training mentoring throughout their PGCE and ECT years.
