Karen’s first chapter working in schools included leadership experience that spanned across pastoral and academic areas with extended periods as Acting Principal. This background provided valuable strategic skills and experience to bring into both the development and implementation of a diverse range of programs across multiple schools in her next role working at Independent Schools Victoria.
With a teaching background as broad as Specialist Mathematics and Chemistry through to VCE Theatre Studies, Karen is passionate about supporting young people to thrive in learning programs which bring both challenge and joy. She is thrilled to return and be working for a school community she cares so deeply about alongside a multi-skilled staff and leadership team.
