I have been the Headteacher at Bishop’s since October 2018 and feel privileged to lead such a great school with a strong sense of community and a determination to offer the best opportunities for all of our students.
After starting my teaching career in the Northwest, I moved with my family to Hereford to join Bishop’s. Having served in different leadership roles at the school, I have a deep understanding and empathy for the heart of our school to lead it forward.
I am really excited about our ambitious plans for the future to offer the best learning experiences for our students to be happy and successful.
