My background

31 years old and a very keen sportsman. Play football to semi-professional level and spend the majority of my free time keeping active. Recently moved to Wakefield but still commute to Scunthorpe, which is where I grew up, for work. Like helping people improve and better themselves even if it is in small increments. Our school motto is 'try your best, be nice and you'll do well" which is the ethos I will implement if we work together.
