I am extremely proud to be Headteacher of Crestwood School, serving the community I was born and raised in.  After school, I went to King Edward VI College, followed by Sunderland University to study for a degree in Fine Art.

After university, I spent a short time working in a bank but soon found my vocation and passion in teaching. I worked in Staffordshire during my early career, teaching Art, Technology and PE, before moving to a school in Wolverhampton. I started as Head of Department and finished as interim Headteacher, having many roles and responsibilities in between, including SENDCo. This is something I loved, and I am as passionate as ever in supporting pupils with additional needs. I am a dad of two teenagers who keep me very busy when I’m not at school.
