Head of Primary
After obtaining a degree in Law and Computer Science, I qualified as a Chartered Accountant with aspirations to run my own business. However, starting a family turned my attentions to the creative world of teaching and understanding how children think. Working in school is a pleasure, being with children is a privilege. I have taught all ages, in schools of different sizes in UK and the Middle East. I am passionate about high quality education. During my teaching career, I supported colleagues in the teaching of maths and Special Educational Needs. I was Headteacher of a vibrant and successful village school in the UK before looking for the challenge of working in the International setting again.
The clear values held by Nord Anglia Education resonate with me and, when visiting BISB, there was a ‘buzz’ of energy, creativity and warmth which made me want to come and lead the team.
