Interim Deputy Principal
Jason
Assistant Principal (Community)
After spending over 20 years in professional football, I transitioned into education and have been at KE6 for the past two years. I lead the Student Development, Community Team and Route 2 programme, focusing on creating meaningful opportunities for students to grow both academically and personally.
My experience in professional sport has shaped my approach to teamwork, culture, and leadership—values I now embed into my work at KE6. I’m passionate about ensuring every student has access to the right pathways for success, whether through education, sport, or community engagement.
I believe in building a positive and supportive environment where students can develop the skills and confidence they need for their future
