Biography
I am a Senior Lecturer on the Early Years Teacher Status Programme, a post graduate accreditation endorsed by the National College for Teaching and Leadership. The programme supports those who want to lead and support the delivery of high quality early years services.
Research Interest
Professional currency is imperative within an academic environment. I therefore ensure I keep up to date with initiatives and legislation within the sector. As a team we have introduced a Professional Development Network which I am partly responsible for hosting. This enables us to bring together representatives from employment, local authorities, children's centres and more, in order to collaborate on the developments within the programme. As a professional it is an important means of keeping up to date.
