I am a scientist and medical educator, with interests in fair, equitable access to education.

It matters to me that children are supported in their early years learning and development, so they can build confidence and insight into their abilities, are encouraged to be independent learners, and can acquire healthy strategies to maintain their wellbeing.

As part of the governing body at Forty Hill, I intend to ensure the school is held to high standards of education and support, and that innovative opportunities are used to extend learning beyond the core curriculum and traditional classroom environment.
