I am a qualified PE teacher with 14 years teaching experience. I hold a BA (Hons) in Physical Education with QTS from the University of Brighton. I am also a qualified personal trainer and fitness instructor.

I have taught all key stages from early years to sixth form and have two children of my own who are now 19 and 22. My personal and professional experiences have enabled me to fully understand the importance of ensuring that children are provided with enhancing opportunities that support them as they move through schools and into adulthood. 

I have experience of developing progressive curriculums from early year’s education through to KS5 having spent 3 years developing the PE curriculum for three local primary schools as well as developing my current schools’ curriculums at KS3, KS4 and KS5. This has provided me with a clear insight into a child’s development and the different needs at different life stages. 

As well as developing the summer school programme, I have provided students with enrichment opportunities such as residential trips abroad and extra curricular clubs, festivals and events and believe that it is these opportunities and experiences that really make a difference.
