Wessex Learning Trust
Our Team Heads of House
I joined Nailsea in 2019 after relocating back to South Wales, having previously taught in Cornwall. My primary subject is Physical Education, and I am keen to instil the values of teamwork, honesty and effort developed through sport, into the house ethos.
I have relished the opportunity to work at Nailsea, due its supportive, caring and inclusive nature as a school. I am proud to be the Head of Dragon House, working with such a dedicated and caring tutor team, who aim to support our Dragon members on their journey to realising their full potential, both academically and personally.
Members of Dragon House are proud ambassadors of their community, they always look out for one another, demonstrating tolerance, empathy and inclusivity.
I joined Nailsea School in 2022 having taught English in North Somerset and Bristol for over twenty-two years.
Having had the privilege of working in a variety of aspects of school life I look forward to using these skills with the students at Nailsea, helping them to realise their full potential academically and emotionally.
School is a once in a lifetime opportunity. My responsibility is to ensure that our students are happy, safe and supported as they journey through this part of their education and life with us.
I joined Nailsea School in 2010 as an English teacher, and now have over 20 years’ experience teaching Secondary students across all age groups.
I love teaching and alongside that I have a keen interest in pastoral care and pupil development, seeing these three things as completely intertwined. It’s essential that students find me accessible and it is my responsibility to find ways of getting to know them and support them both in and out of the classroom.
I’m proud to be Head of Phoenix House, working with a great team of talented and caring tutors to help all the students in our house realise their full potential both academically and personally.
I joined Nailsea School in 2022 after spending a few years pursuing my career in Musical Theatre.
Working alongside an incredible team of tutors, we are committed to encourage and motivate each student to flourish in their time at Nailsea School. Unicorn House are supportive of one another, and we ensure we will champion our students academically, and support pastorally.
I’m proud to be the Head of Unicorn House, and I am driven to ensure all students feel seen and heard. I am committed to teaching Unicorn House that there are no limits to what they can achieve.
