Biography
I commenced working at the College of Education on 2 September 1996 (formerly Dunedin College of Education). During my time at the College I have acquired a vast knowledge relating to many aspects of teacher education, particularly the policies, procedures and regulations governing initial teacher education (ITE). This includes the University of Otago, Teaching Council of Aotearoa New Zealand, and Universities New Zealand: Committee on University Academic Programmes (CUAP).
I am the Committee Secretary for the College's Academic Committee and External Advisory Committee for external stakeholders of the Early Childhood, Primary, Te Pōkai Mātauranga o te Ao Rua (Primary Bicultural) and Secondary Education sectors, inclusive of both the Dunedin and Invercargill Campuses. I'm a member of the Health and Safety Committee, a certified First Aider, and the Fire Warden for the Registry Building.
