I retired from teaching after 33 years in 2016. I taught in an all boys school in Woolwich for 9 years before taking a break to look after my two children. In 1992 I started at RMGS as a maths teacher and eventually took on the pastoral role of Head of Year 7 and finally Head of Lower School. Both my children attended RMGS and I was an active member of the PTFA for many years.

I joined the Governing board in 2018 with responsibility for the monitoring of Quality of Education and careers. After serving as vice-chair, I took over as chair about three months ago.
