I moved to Farcet a year ago in September 2019 to become the Priest-in-Charge of Stanground and Farcet Churches. Previously I had been a priest in churches in Kent and Norfolk.
I have a passion for rugby, and classic vehicles – my wife thinks I’m a bit ‘geeky’ when it comes to buses. We have a couple of dogs whom we enjoy taking for walks – especially around Crown Lakes.
Prior to ordination in 2008, I had spent over 27 years in education, with 25 of those years in special education. I taught in a special school for children with emotional and behavioural difficulties for many years, became an advisor, and spent my last 6 years as Educational Officer for Special Education and Inclusion.
I have a passion for children to achieve their potential, but equally want to see children enjoy their experiences in school.
As a Governor, I hope to bring my experience in education as well as my role as priest in the village to encourage and help develop our children, and to get alongside our families.

"The best thing my child finds about school is the fact that the staff try their best to make sure the children are safe. They also make sure the students enjoy their time at school making it fun and entertaining. It also helps students develop their education and go beyond their abilities."
"The best thing my child thinks in this school is the fact that teachers care about everyone's learning and support them if they are stuck or confused. Another reason is that students and kept safe in every area of school and looked after really well."
"The care and support they give the children is wonderful."
"I'd just like to say with all the years we've been coming to the school with both our children I've never enjoyed the enthusiasm, excitement and pure happiness of the children in an assembly it was just wonderful to see and be a part of thank you. You're doing an amazing job at the school"
