“It’s a magical world... let’s go exploring!” My educational mantra is proudly borrowed from Calvin and HobbesAs a teacher, coach and mentor, I have worked with educators from Early Years through to Grade 12. As a national advisor and middle leader in the state and private school sectors, I have empowered both teachers and students to develop curricula and pedagogy through collaboration, mutual respect and fun.Passionate about digital literacy and creativity, I have designed and delivered Masters in Education and BGE courses on digital literacy for both Glasgow University and Edinburgh University. As a Social Studies curriculum advisor, I worked with hundreds of teachers in Scotland, supporting them to develop skills in outdoor education and fieldwork studies. I am currently researching cosmopolitan education and sociology for my EdD dissertation with Glasgow University.I am passionate about developing a whole school approach, which recognises wider achievement in young people. For many years I organised residential folk music camps for young people in Scotland and I am currently a Cub Scout leader in Belgium. An avid mountain trekker and gardener, I am also a great fan of live music, photography and cooking.
