Administration, leadership, teaching
School education in practice
A personal portfolio of school administration, educational leadership and classroom teaching, shared with colleagues who care about excellence in school education.
Three areas of practice
Where the experience sits
I bring together the practical running of a school, the leadership that shapes it, and the teaching that happens in every classroom.
School administration
Day-to-day organisation of the school, from timetables and records to the planning that keeps everything running smoothly.
Educational leadership
Strategic leadership that brings staff, planning and school priorities into one direction, with a focus on steady improvement.
Classroom teaching
Direct teaching and everyday classroom practice, planning lessons and supporting each learner through the day.
Personal ethos
Excellence begins in daily work
I am continuing to pursue excellence in school education. Sound administration gives teachers the time and structure to focus on learning in the classroom.
Leadership and teaching sit on the same line: each decision about the school shapes what happens for pupils at their desks.
Let's talk about school education
I welcome conversations with school leaders and education colleagues who share a commitment to excellence.
