About Me...
I am passionate about education and improving outcomes for children and young people particularly those with SEND.
I am an experienced outstanding school leader and teacher with over 20 years’ experience. My most recent substantive post was Headteacher of an outstanding primary special school in Lancashire. I have also held Deputy Headteacher and Assistant Headteacher positions.
Throughout my successful career I have taught in both mainstream and specialist settings with a wide range of whole school and curriculum responsibilities.

I am now an Independent Education Consultant / Adviser and Specialist Teacher providing a vast range of support, advice and training to colleagues from a range of sectors across the North West (Lancashire, Sefton, Liverpool, Knowsley, St Helens, Warrington and Wigan).
