Retired Head Teacher after many years in both primary and secondary education. Specialist area of Educational Management of which I hold both an M.A. and an Advanced Diploma. Presented seminars on the curriculum in Primary Education, whilst working as a Deputy Head Teacher at the induction of the National Curriculum and later in my capacity as a Head Teacher. My first degree was in sciences, specialising in astro-physics and geology. Have had a wide range of academic experiences in many contrasting fields which permit me to be in the unique position of being able to connect ideas and concepts across disciplines. As a qualified, practising musician I also find that philosophical avenues of thought have a great bearing on my life. I enjoy the challenge of exploring new fields and resourcing new ideas and concepts, so am more than pleased to work in most areas of academia.
