Position: Head Mistress of the Junior School

School: Northwood College

Qualifications: BA Hons (East London), PGCE (North London)

Experience: I have been Head Mistress at Northwood College Junior School since April 2011. Before that I was a teacher at the School for ten years, teaching various year groups including Reception, Year 1 and Year 3. I also had responsibility for the Foundation stage and Key Stage 1 and was Head of Curriculum. I love teaching and believe that it is very important for a Head to continue to teach if at all possible.

Summary

I am married with a teenage son and live in Stanmore. In my spare time I like to relax whilst practicing yoga, painting and spending time with my family. My experience of teaching and of educational leadership in girls’ schools over the last ten years means that I am totally committed to single sex education. Girls and boys develop in completely different ways and have very different needs. I believe these needs are met more effectively in single sex environments.
