I am the Head Teacher and Head of Education for Orchard Manor School.  Over the last ten years, I have been a senior leader and have led several successful school improvement projects across the South West.  

I am passionately committed to creating a learning environment where our young people can thrive.

I am Deputy Head Teacher and based on the Upper Campus at Orchard Manor School. I have worked in special educational settings for the past eight years, previously coming from a mainstream setting where I was Head of Department of Design and Technology.  I am passionate about ensuring our pupils are given opportunities to grow, supported to reach their full potential  and preparing them for adulthood.

I am the Deputy Head Teacher and based on the Lower Campus at Orchard Manor School.  I have worked in education for the past twenty years, more than sixteen of these in Special Schools.  I am passionate about all pupils fulfilling their potential as they prepare for adulthood and developing all the skills they need to feel confident, able and happy to journey through their lives.

I am the senior leader responsible for Personalisation at Orchard Manor School.  I have worked in a variety of educational settings over the last 10 years through subject teaching, pastoral and behaviour management.  I am committed to working with all stakeholders: from learners to families and staff, to ensure everyone has the right to access a safe and effective learning environment where everyone can realise their potential.
