With nearly 6 years of experience working exclusively in the education sector, I specialise in enhancing parent engagement and communication within the independent education landscape. My focus is on leveraging technology to support schools in improving their communication strategies, ensuring that parents are well-informed and involved in their children’s education journey.
I have had the privilege of supporting hundreds of independent schools across the UK, helping them effectively utilize software solutions to foster better parental engagement. My commitment to this sector stems from a personal connection to education—my mother is a headmaster, and my own experiences as a student have given me a deep appreciation for the unique challenges schools face daily.
I am passionate about networking, sharing best practices, and the collaborative spirit that thrives within the independent school community. I find great satisfaction in being part of this vibrant sector and in helping schools navigate changes, such as the recent VAT adjustments, to minimize their impact.
Looking ahead, I am excited about the role technology will play in shaping the future of education. I see it as a tool that can not only enhance student learning but also streamline administrative tasks and reduce teacher workloads. As part of The Access Group, my goal is to be a trusted advisor to independent schools, guiding them on how to best integrate technological solutions to meet their unique needs.
What sets me apart is my unwavering passion, hard work, and deep understanding of the independent education sector. I am dedicated to using my experience to help schools overcome challenges and thrive in an ever-evolving educational landscape. I believe in the potential of digital tools, like My School Portal, to create seamless communication experiences for parents and schools, and I am committed to advocating for these solutions to enhance the overall educational experience

As a school that’s very committed to a sustainable future, one of the really quantifiable values of My School Portal has been the immediate access to information, which has meant we can cut down on unwieldy amounts of paper.
The visual nature of the pods and the way that key words and diagrams are emphasised makes them more memorable.
What My School Portal satisfies for our teachers is the opportunity to have data readily available about children within the school. But most importantly, it gives parents a one-stop shop to find all the information they need about their child.
