Simon has been a qualified teacher for 13 years and has taught in three different secondary schools across Coventry, Warwickshire and Birmingham, ranging from Year 7 – 13, and in both single sex and co-educational settings.



Simon joined RFSS in September 2021 as the Director of Learning for Mathematics, and continues to lead maths alongside his role of whole school improvement in Quality Assurance. Simon’s extensive middle leadership experience has enabled him to drive up standards in maths departments wherever he has been, and in his new role, he will be able to coach and support other middle leaders to maximum their efficiency and effectiveness, so that standards are high across the school in all areas. Simon has completed his NPQSL during the 2022/23 academic year, which will further support his role in the coming year.



Simon’s main role however is as a husband, and as a father of 3 young children. With any “spare” time, Simon enjoys spending time participating in sport, particularly cricket in the summer, and during the winter months, pursuing my hobby of football refereeing and following Everton FC.
