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.
Deputy Pastoral Head of Secondary, Head of Year 11 & Math Tea...
Inspired as a teenager by my own Maths teacher, I aim to develop a love of Maths in my students by setting high standards and challenging them whilst bringing a sense of fun to the subject. I have experience teaching Maths in 4 different schools, across the secondary age range. My most recent school achieved excellent standards in maths, taking it near to the top of the leader board in the county.
Deputy Head of Primary
I am delighted to be here at BISB and very excited about getting to know my new class, colleagues and host country. I have come to Slovakia from Singapore where I was teaching at the Nord Anglia School for the past four years.
I turned to teaching after enjoying other careers. I studied Politics, Philosophy and Economics at Oxford University and went on to work in Journalism and Public Relations. When my children were young I re-trained as a Psychotherapist and worked in Private Practice and for the UK National Health Service.
Head of Secondary and Physics Teacher
I have worked in education since leaving university and have taught in UK State and Independent schools. I have moved to BISB from Kuala Lumpur where I was Head of Secondary in a large International School in the city.
As an educational leader in school I strive to ensure that students have outstanding learning opportunities during lessons, a plethora of enrichment activities outside the classroom and above all else the opportunity to be part of a caring, nurturing school community.
