My Story

In 2009, I graduated from Liverpool Hope University with a 2:1 BA (QTS). I later became a primary school teacher in South Leeds and was quickly promoted to EYFS leader and phonics lead. In 2015, I became the Assistant Headteacher, responsible for KS1, Assessment, and Safeguarding at an inner-city school in South Leeds. During this time, I had my own children, and following my second maternity leave, I was promoted to a seconded position of Deputy Head.
​

In September 2022, I began a new chapter in the independent education sector when I was appointed as the Head of Early Years at Woodhouse Grove School. It has been a privilege to lead and manage the team, inspire staff, and drive improvements. I successfully completed an ISI inspection for Ashdown Lodge during this time.

In September 2024, I founded Little Classroom, a small independent educational program to address the national school readiness crisis and improve educational outcomes for primary school children by providing education for home-educated children. The goal was to establish an early years and primary tuition learning centre that caters for younger children with offers educational program that incorporates learning through play to build children's confidence, ensure rapid progress and support their individual learning journey.​​
