My first role as a member of a senior leadership team began back in 2006. That feels like a lifetime ago. And soon I will clock up two years as a headteacher.
Two years. I can’t quite believe it. It has gone by so quickly and so much has happened. After two extremely packed years, I’ve definitely got enough anecdotes for at least one book; possibly a serialisation of the chronicles of headship. With everything that’s happened, this could be a best-seller. My only problem: readers would think it was a work of fiction if I really told the full truth.
Some of us like a challenge. I think I am one of those people. I can probably trace this back to my first ever teaching job. With a late August birthday, I was still 21 when I finished my PGCE and embarked on my first interview.
