I am a passionate education practitioner with over 30 years of education experience and more than ten years at senior management level in five different institutions including schools, FE and Sixth Form Colleges. I was a Lead Practitioner for the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust related to reducing inequality in achievement that gained national recognition with DfE Innovation Unit/Pupil Breakthrough Unit.

I have also been PT specialist education consultant for Young Enterprise providing financial education CPD to both primary and secondary schools in the region. I was a governor at local College for over 6 years.

My research interests are employability and learning space.
