Lindsey Ann Yarwood
B.Ed./NPQH
Head of Early Years and Foundation Stage
I grew up in a small town in the UK, where all of my family still reside. After graduating, I moved to take up a teaching position in London. I worked in a very challenging school there for 8 years. Initially, I was a class teacher, then progressed through a variety of roles, the final role being Assistant Inclusion Manager and Literacy Coordinator.
Following my desire to teach in another country, I moved to the UAE in 2011 where I took up a role leading Early Years. During my time there, the school saw rapid growth and I managed a large team of British and Arabic teachers, which really cemented my love of the UAE and it’s culture.
