“I absolutely love being Headteacher at Glenfrome, because all the staff, families and especially children are so fantastic!”

I joined the Governing Body as a co-opted governor on 1 February 2017. Whilst I am new to Glenfrome Primary, I was formerly the SEN link governor with special interest in Inclusion and Equality at another primary school in Bristol.I am the proud grandfather of eight grandchildren. Three of these are currently in primary education and three more will be starting school in the next few years. Because of this, I have a strong commitment to helping to ensure that all children receive the very best primary education. Although I am new to Glenfrome Primary, I have already witnessed the enthusiasm and professionalism of staff and governors and I look forward to contributing my own skills to the dedication to the children that makes this school a great place to teach and learn.

I have always had a passion to help young people and children. I specialised in Family Law for two years until I took a career change where I am now working as a Civil Litigation Paralegal, advocating in court on behalf of DPDGROUP.    

I have 16 years experience working with children and vulnerable adults from volunteering in Special Needs School, Church, University, Nursing Homes and helping my parents with the foster children until they retired in 2016.

Outside the office he’s a drummer, music lover, and enjoys travelling to new places as an enthusiastic (but not too talented) skier, caravan fan, and ‘motorsport tourist’.

I'm a parent governor, and I joined Glenfrome's governing body in spring 2019. My eldest daughter started in reception at Glenfrome in 2017. I've worked in higher education for over 15 years, and since 2011 I've been at the Open University, where I'm a Senior Lecturer in Classical Studies. Through my work, I've developed a deep commitment to making sure that educational opportunities are open to everyone, and that all students can be supported to fulfil their potential, and I'm excited to be able to contribute to the wonderful Glenfrome community. The arts are a particular passion of mine: I love reading and I'm an enthusiastic member of the Bristol Community Big Band.
