I joined our school as Head Teacher in January 2018. I started my teaching career in West Wales; teaching Mathematics and Computing at GCSE and A-Level and moved to wonderful Jersey in September 2001, working through various leadership roles for 17 years at Hautlieu School.

We are a very welcoming, inclusive, and diverse school, where students feel a keen sense of belonging. We work hard for our young people and families with a strong focus upon personal and academic growth. Life at Haute Vallée starts in Horizon; a designated and unique area of the school where students are immersed in a fast-paced, cross-curricular programme. Students study for half of the timetable in Horizon and access the more practical subjects within specialist subject areas in the school. E.g., Science, Food, Design Technology, Drama, Physical Education Information Technology and Music.

Haute Vallée is a rapidly improving and growing school. If you have been in Jersey for a while, I hope that you will have heard about our journey and the significant positive changes at the school. When I joined the school, I realised from the outset that I had inherited a dedicated team of colleagues that cared deeply about young people. We created a development plan to ensure all our students understood their potential and amended our curriculum to allow all students to experience further success. The ABCs of Haute Vallée became “Achieve, Believe and Care” and over the last four years, we have seen a significant improvement in examination success.

We very much look forward to getting to know you over the coming years and ensuring that our young people continue to achieve outstanding results and progress beyond school to grow into caring, capable, and fulfilled adults.
