I started teaching in 1991, working in Solihull where I was a PE, science and maths coordinator in a large primary with a nursery. I was Acting DHT there too. In Birmingham I was a Science coordinator and leadership team member in a large junior school. In 2000 I moved to Worcestershire and was a Deputy Headteacher in a one form entry C of E primary and then Headteacher in a village C of E first school. I then relocated to Oxfordshire in 2009 and Headteacher in a large primary school, with attached purpose built nursery and children’s centre. I am now sadly retired, due to poor health.
