Miss Clark Headteacher |
Hello, I am Miss Clark and I am the headteacher here at St. James. After graduating from Edge Hill College I initially worked in Cumbria before relocating to Lancashire. Over the course of my teaching career I have taught in four schools and have taught across all key stages. I have also worked for the Local Authority as a teaching and learning consultant. I am passionate about teaching and working alongside parents, staff and governors to ensure that every child reaches their potential. Outside of school I love reading and spending time with my family.
