I joined Oakham in 2002 as a teacher of PE and Games and was fortunate enough to take over the running of the department a few short years later. I became Buchanans Housemistress in 2011. I was appointed Senior Housemistress in September 2016. My husband Patrick (who is a graphic designer and Games coach and Senior Tutor in Clipsham) and I live with our son Harry, and two dogs.
