About the head

Founder and Head of School. Qualified primary school teacher since 2010. Has taught in Buenos Aires, New York City, Ghana and London. Studied developmental psychology, yoga philosophy and mindfulness. Holds Level 3 Forest School Leader qualification.

We believe in equity and inclusivity and we hope you do too. We welcome applications for all children, from all cultural and economic backgrounds. Our hope is that the diversity at Wildwood will come to reflect the wider London community beyond the school. To deliver on this part of our ethos, we have a very high proportion of supported places to enable access for those who can’t afford the fees.
