About
I lead the School of Education with strategic responsibility for all areas of the School's work including our courses, research and partnerships with schools, educational settings, government and industry. I support my colleagues to provide education that transforms the lives of our students and their learners.
I am a member of Kingston and St George's Faculty of Health, Social Care and Education Management Group and Kingston University's Senior Leadership Group. I also serve on Kingston University's Education Committee.
I am a proud former London secondary comprehensive school teacher of history, politics and citizenship. In citizenship education, I led one of the first subject departments in the country, helping to shape policy and practice in this important subject and gaining significant national and international attention in the process. In higher education I have been a lecturer in citizenship at UCL Institute of Education and London Metropolitan University as well as leading teacher education at London Metropolitan University and Goldsmiths, University of London.
