I'm a primary school teacher with many years of experience across KS1 & 2 (the majority of which has been spent in Y6) leading science, maths and the curriculum for more able and gifted children, as well as leading a key stage as part of the SLT. In my spare time, when not wrangling my own little monkeys, I love to read and write, and am currently seeking representation for my debut novel.
