The school was a private fee paying theatre school based in Rodney Street Liverpool and had a history of producing high quality students who went onto the performing arts industry.

When an opening came up for the Head of Dept position, the principal felt I had the requirements and industry experience to really promote the department. I balanced this position alongside my singing career but unfortunately international touring commitments made it impossible to do both. The school sadly closed and I continued to teach privately.
