Kings Norton Girls' School

After 6th form I went to UCE (as it was called in my day) and did a 4 year teaching degree. I worked at a primary school in central Birmingham for 4 years, now I have moved to Indonesia where I am head of Year 5 at The British International school, Jakarta.

My A Level results enabled me to secure a place at a Russell Group University. My studies have now taken me to the United States to experience first-hand their prison education systems and how education can change lives.

I went to BCU and studied Media and Communication. Then I did my teacher training with BASS (in Harborne). Now I am Head of Media and Film at Lymm High School. I’m also doing an MA in Education with Edge Hill. I’ve done some educational research and written some papers, specifically on how to challenge the most able students.
