Scunthorpe
Helen, the Head of Rowan, has worked in education for over twenty years, most of
which has been in or associated with, inclusion and behaviour management. Having
initially worked as an Education Welfare Officer, successfully raising school
attendance in two of the most deprived areas of Scunthorpe, she then worked at
High Ridge Secondary School, where she set up and ran the successful Nurture
Group. High Ridge became The St Lawrence Academy, where Helen acted as the Lead
Behaviour Professional for several years, developing, delivering and training
(staff and students) anger management workshops and leading in Restorative
Justice Practices, as well as running Summer School for KS2-to-KS3 transition.
She then became Deputy Head of a local Alternative Provision, where her hard
work, dedication and hands-on management style resulted in both improved
behaviour and attendance, as well as a dramatic reduction in exclusions over a
period of more than four years. She is a qualified counsellor and was Designated
Safeguarding Lead in her capacity as Deputy Head. Helen brings this wealth of
experience and skill which, coupled with the expertise and experience of the
rest of the staff, will make Rowan Education a unique and successful school. She
believes passionately that all children should have the right to education and
to achieve their potential and that, with the appropriate support and
encouragement, they can do so.
