Head of Campus, Rayyan
I am now in my 11th year at CISD and was very proud to celebrate our achievements at the recent 10th Anniversary celebration. I was part of the original ‘Start- up Team’ at the school. Originally qualified as a Primary Teacher in Scotland, I have over thirty years’ experience in both education and leadership.
Head of Primary, Madinat Khalifa
Since graduating from Sheffield Hallam University in 2003, I have had the experience of teaching across the primary age range. I was lucky enough to start my teaching career at an outstanding school in my hometown, Derby. There, I was involved in a number of pilot programs that used technology to enhance student learning, an area that I continue to be passionate about today.
Head of Campus, Gharaffa
In January 2017, I joined CISD as Head of the Gharaffa Campus. Prior to this, I was Acting Headteacher and Deputy Headteacher at Doha English Speaking School, Qatar.
I have lived and worked in Doha for over 21 years. My particular educational passions include, English, Music, the Performing Arts, Personal, Social and Emotional Development plus Assessment for Learning. I firmly believe that it is our duty to realise the potential in your child; creating independent children who are able to question, reflect and challenge whilst considering the thoughts and feelings of others.
Head of Secondary, Madinat Khalifa
Throughout my teaching career in the UK I have had varied roles and responsibilities that I bring with me to Compass. Having started my career in Cheshire, England I held responsibilities of Head of Department, Head of House and Head of Year. The skills I acquired then enabled me to obtain an Assistant Head Position in Stoke on Trent. I am looking forward to working at Compass and move with my wife and three children.

He has been teaching Physics for 22 years in British State schools and International schools in Peru, Papua New Guinea, Norway, the USA, Poland and now in Qatar.
