Fiona Woodfield Attendance Officer - Joined The Deanery in October 2023

I have always enjoyed working with young people and their families. I bring with me a wealth of experience from working within the mental health sector ( TaMHs ), SEN EHCP coordination team and the family service. Since joining The Deanery, I feel more passionate each day about supporting our students and families with their journey through secondery school. When I am not at school I enjoy Netball ( although very amature ! ), family time and walking the dog with friends.

Maddie Easter Attendance Administrator  - Joined The Deanery in June 2023

Prior to starting at The Deanery I worked within the early years sector, within this role I learnt the importance of supporting children and their families providing them with the foundation for their furture. My administrative role The Deanery has allowed me to use a different skill set expanding my knowledge day by day.  I am kept busy outside of work with my young children.
