My role as deputy head of whole school at SNA is incredibly exciting as it means that I get the chance to work with all the students, teachers and parents across the school. SNA has a heart and soul that you can feel as soon as you walk through the gates and this is down to the dedication of the staff members we have here and the engaged, thoughtful and hardworking students.

As we prepare our students for their futures, we strive to empower them with the necessary skills with a focus on student leadership so we can ensure they leave SNA with the tools to succeed in a global world.
I have worked in education for 20 years in the UK, Bangkok and Ho Chi Minh city. And I pride myself on having worked in many different areas within the school environment over the years, enabling me to have the skills, knowledge and experience to see what is working well and what needs improvement, so we are continually driving for success.
Barak Obama once spoke about over communication being the key to people not filling in the blanks, so I encourage all parents, students and staff to reach out and talk and together we can overcome any hurdles.
I am deeply honored to be afforded this opportunity to help develop and grow our Primary Years Programme into a powerhouse of inquiry, learning and excitement.
Over the last eight years education has become part of who I am, as I taught in private, international and IB schools in China. I believe in putting our learners at heart of our community by giving them voice, choice and ownership over their learning. I aim to dispel the idea that inquiry-based learning is a chaotic free for all and demonstrate the benefits of structured inquiry that places 21st century skills, international mindedness and IB elements proactively and purposefully at the forefront.
Alongside this, I am passionate about building engagement across the SNA family, including our learners, parents and teachers, bridging the gaps and ensuring we all are actively involved in our collective learning journeys that culminate in the PYP at the PYP Exhibition.
I look forward to working in collaboration with our PYP teachers, learners and parents in building upon our foundations and creating a positive and engaging environment that will house our family of life-long learners, and that will prepare our PYP learners not just for their next big leap into MYP, but for a life full of endless opportunity and promise.
