I have been in education for over 20 years. The majority of my experience has been in leading Maths education in schools across Leeds and Wakefield. I joined Rastrick as Director of Mathematics in 2015 and moved into the senior leadership team in 2021 with responsibility for leading teaching & learning, working with the team to ensure our students get the very best education.
