Biography
I am the Quality Improvement Officer working supporting schools in East Lothian. I work with a cluster of schools in the Dunbar area supporting self-evaluation and supporting with pastoral issues. The past year has bee a steep learning curve but I have found this job to be challenging and rewarding. I am enjoying having a close relationship with schools and working as an extended part of the management team. I am passionate about supporting and improving he education we provide for our young people, to be all that they can be.
In addition to working with the cluster, I have a large curricular responsibility. I lead the Curriculum ICT team and develop, with colleagues, the ICT strategy for East Lothian. I am the Early Years specialist and I am now leading literacy developments within the authority.
In addition to my ‘day job’, I am also a mum of two. When I think about education, I always think about the experiences I hope my own children will have. I hope that they are fortunate to have a full, rounded educational experience where they are valued as individuals and their particular skills and interests are recognised. I strive to ensure all our children are entitled to this.
