20 years of learning, leading and juggling motherhood along the way.

I’ve learned that calm, steady leadership matters most — and that nothing meaningful is achieved alone.

Grateful for the people, the lessons and the privilege. 💜💚

October is ADHD Awareness Month - a vital time to deepen understanding, challenge misconceptions, & celebrate.

In education, awareness isn’t enough; it’s about building environments where every mind can thrive.

London: 11 RISE schools, 9 advisers. North West: 32 RISE schools, 9 advisers.
If RISE is about fairness + impact, adviser deployment must reflect greatest need, not geography.
Every child deserves the same chance to thrive!

Reading - the passport to life.
Y8 tests diagnose too late. If we want confident learners, we must invest early: EYFS & primary.
Teaching transforms. Every child should leave primary school a reader. Anything less locks doors before futures begin.

Walking through classrooms, you can feel it: children who are impeccably behaved, deeply focused on their learning. 💫

Leadership isn’t about giving instructions – it’s about working alongside others to drive improvement.

Proud to be shoulder-to-shoulder with our brilliant School Improvement Team at Strive4, supporting leaders so they can focus on what matters most: children, learning & community. 🌟

Today’s INSET was a reminder of why we teach: to encourage our values of Ambition, Possibility, Resilience, Integrity, Diversity & Emotional Awareness. With plans in place, we’re ready to welcome pupils back on Wednesday. #Striving4Excellence🌟📚
