Role: Class Teacher

Curriculum area: Maths Lead

I have been teaching for 25 years, predominantly in Primary Mainstream settings across all year groups, before joining Aspris in 2023. Prior to this, I worked as a Residential Social Worker and Instructor for a number of years within a large Autistic Society in the Northwest with roles including onsite and outreach support and working in Intensive Therapy Units within Day Services. With a maths lecturer as a father, I was bound to develop an interest in maths…the probability was high.
