Title
Trainer Consultant, YoungMinds
Bio
Mary taught and managed in primary, secondary and special schools for over 20 years, working in everything from a comprehensive school of 1,600 students to a village school with 35 on role and three year groups in a class. During this time she developed a real interest in context and learning which formed part of her MA Ed thesis.
After leaving direct teaching she became the Education, Training and Employment Manager in a Youth Offending Team and then Head of a Virtual School for Children in Care. This has given her the opportunity to develop a deep understanding of the barriers to learning facing many young people and how to overcome these. These barriers are not just within individuals but also within systems and processes and much of Mary’s work has been at a strategic level challenging and navigating these on behalf of the young people she works with. Mary is also a restorative justice trainer, facilitator and assessor.
Mary joined Young Minds in 2014 as a trainer and consultant. She delivers training nationally including several Academic Resilience Approach projects and a post graduate course for those interested in becoming ARA facilitators. These include the setting up communities of practice for collaboratives of schools/colleges and supporting them to build resilience across whole school communities and structures.
