I am a highly professional primary and middle school teacher with 29 years of teaching and leadership experience. 

For the past 12 years I have served as Deputy Head and Headmistress of a private school and nursery, educating young people from 2 - 11 years, entering the children for 11+ exams in Bucks, and entrance exams to private sector secondary schools.

​

Qualified to teach all primary curriculum subjects from Year 1 to Year 6, my personal specialisms are in all areas of English, maths, 11+ skills, Personal and social development, music, and drama.

We've Got You Covered

Expert Teachers in KS1, KS2, KS3 & 4 School Subjects

Having very recently left school settings as a Headteacher to start Grangewood Education, I  have a firm grasp on both public and private sector education in the UK.

I have been a teacher for 29 years, and am fully qualified, with an Enhanced DBS check and insured.

I am a highly skilled and experienced professional and know how to get results.

Aiming for Success 

I fully support the need to achieve results, but know that success only comes when an individual feels confident in their understanding and skills. This can be hard to achieve in a busy classroom, which is where we come in - to help to focus on building understanding and confidence to succeed, with  a quiet, encouraging ethos.

Tailored Personal Sessions

We believe that education matters, and that everybody deserves the right to learn and to thrive in the best way possible for them.

Our tuition is delivered at the pace required by individuals at any level.

Our aim is to share our passion for learning, either for 'high flyers' who will benefit from an extra push, or those who need more support including those with SEN or neurodivergence.

Everyone is welcome at Grangewood Education.

11+ and Secondary Common Entrance Exam Prep

Years of experience and guiding pupils through the 11+ with huge success enables us to help your child develop the confidence and the skills required for the Non-VR, VR, English and maths elements of the 11+ and secondary school entrance exams, in person or online.
