15 years' experience

I have been in education for 15 years, with 10 years of leadership experience. Having graduated from the University of Leeds with a degree in Geography, I undertook a PGCE and later gained the NPQSL through University College London. My leadership experiences have been in Dubai for the past 12 years which include Head of Humanities and International Baccalaureate coordinator. I am thrilled to be part of USI in its first year and am looking forward to setting a culture of kindness, respect and enjoyment within our school and wider community. I believe in evidence-based education and I am excited to develop and deliver quality learning and teaching and a love of learning amongst our students.
