I was thrilled to join the vibrant community at Atelier 21 as Executive Head. The school’s ethos aligns perfectly with my educational philosophy. Born in England and raised in Amsterdam, my journey led me back to Kent where I live with my family and pets. With a deep passion for education and pastoral care, I am committed to fostering a supportive learning environment for all pupils. My interest in metacognition drives my dedication to enhancing teaching practices and supporting pupils’ holistic development. I look forward to introducing you to Sally, my trusty dog who has her own wellbeing qualification and is very much a part of the Atelier 21 family. She is an eight year old cockapoo and is happy to sit and read with children or fall asleep and snore under a chair in staff meetings – as she has done many a time!
