Student Transition, Support and Engagement Manager - Foundation Learning

"The department is always exciting due to the different staff sharing their past experiences with our students. I can relate to many of our students as I did not enjoy my time at school as I was bullied. The best part of my job is seeing students build up their confidence in their own ability."
