15 years ago I embarked on a career in teaching. I enjoyed a varied workload, which took me through PE teaching, safeguarding lead, inclusion manager and part of the SLT. Working with inspirational children and colleagues, I truly believe that I made a difference to the families, pupils and staff in the school and local area.

Move into the present day. I am sitting in a bustling office looking out towards Queen Victoria Square and still preparing for the new school term to start. I am joined by a new group of colleagues who all share in my passion for education and all have the same goal: to inspire the next generation of superstars.

Instead of making a difference to one school, I am now making a difference to a host of schools. I recruit people, not staff; I fill needs, not vacancies; I still inspire, not just provide. Education is still my passion, and long may this continue! 

Smile Education is a family that looks after all our members with honour and integrity. So, if you are currently a teacher, teaching assistant or working within another role in an education environment and you have the same passion and inspiration, get in touch with me and we can discuss how I can help you to achieve your goals.
