The Senior Leadership Team (SLT) plays a critical role in promoting a positive school culture and fostering strong relationships with students, staff, parents, and the wider community. They work closely with other school administrators, teachers, support staff, and community organizations to ensure that the school is providing high-quality educational opportunities for all students.
The SLT also plays a key role in the professional development of teachers and staff, by providing opportunities for growth and learning, and by promoting a culture of ongoing improvement and excellence. Through regular meetings and discussions, they work to identify areas where the school can improve, and they collaborate on strategies to achieve their goals.
The school SLT is a crucial component of the school's leadership and governance structure, and plays an important role in shaping the future of the school and the students it serves.
I am delighted to introduce myself as the Assistantn Principal and Head of the Whole School's Academics and Curriculum at DePS Deira Private School, from August 2021.
My philosophy of delivering world-class learning experiences in an emotionally comfortable but academically challenging environment, where our youngest students show courage in their endeavors and the eldest display conviction in their ideals, is crafted from 12 years of experience in education. This experience spans the Deputy Headship of both India’s independent preparatory schools and international schools as well as qualifications inclusive of a master’s degree in Economics and pursuing a master’s degree in Educational Leadership.
I am honored to lead such a vibrant, innovative, and caring community. We embrace an empathetic and collaborative approach to supporting one another; we are much more than a school, we are an inclusive community where each child thoroughly enjoys being themselves.
Having taught and held leadership posts throughout the 3-13 age range, I fully appreciate, value, and understand the learning journey our students are embarking upon. I believe it is our responsibility in the School to inspire individuals through real-world learning opportunities, enabling children to question critically, engage enthusiastically and perform passionately. We equip our students with the tools they require to flourish in their exciting futures.
I am fortunate to be joined in the School by my young girl who is also a student of the DePS family and, away from school life, we enjoy playing sports, traveling and reading together. I look forward to working closely with you, as parents, to support your children and family on this exciting educational journey together.
